When families thrive, everyone succeeds. This website is a resource hub and guide for those interested in making their workplaces more family friendly. We encourage both employers and employees to use this guide as a tool for exploration. Family-friendly workplaces have positive impacts on health, development and well-being, financial stability, and future career success. Family-friendly workplaces offer policies, practices, and benefits that allow employees to more easily balance their work life with their family responsibilities. Whether it is through the formation of internal policy or through shifting workplace culture, we all have a role in making our workplaces healthier.
