Unexpected Reasons Women Are Happiest At These Healthcare Companies
Unexpected Reasons Women Are Happiest At These Healthcare Companies Women represent close to 80% of the healthcare workforce, yet in far too many company cultures, their value continues to go underappreciated.Its important for female professionals in the field to do their research and seek out companies that promote gender diversity, offer pay and benefits that help them retain women, and make a point of promoting women into leadership positions. Today, at least a couple of companies are excelling in all of these areas check them out below1. Boston ScientificBoston Scientificspecializes in the manufacturing of medical devices, and its also well-known for its excellent policies for working mothers. In fact, Working Mother counted Boston Scientific among its 100 Best Companies in 2017.FGBers agree that Boston Scientific prioritizes the success of working parents (not just moms), with one pointing out that Boston Scientifics parental leave consists of 12 weeks paid maternity leave and 4 weeks paid paternity leave. A second FGBer praised Boston Scientifics willingness to talk to employees and gather information on how to best serve its female workforce, saying that lots of enthusiasm and research goes into how BSC develops women, how we appreciate the variety of lives our female employees lead, etcA massive multinational corporation producing consumer goods and pharmaceutical products, Johnson Johnson wants to empower its female employees to pursue leadership positions.In fact, Johnson Johnson boasts a 43% rate of female managers, and the company implements a Womens Leadership Initiative to encourage more women to rise into upper-level roles. FGBers believe that Johnson Johnson makes a genuine effort to employ a gender-diverse workforce, with one claiming that I dont feel that gender has ever been a barrier to my career opportunities. Another points out the companys strong family-leave policies and emphasis on diverse hiring practices They are wonderful when i t comes to diversity and womens rights. They just increased the paid maternal and paternal leave. I have seen first-hand that people can take necessary leave for 6 months and come back with no impact to their growth in the company.--Fairygodboss is proud to partner with these companies
