Merchants’ Innovative Policies Recognized
February 5, 2024
For the second year in a row, Merchants Bonding Company earned a Best Place for Working Parents designation based on the company’s family-friendly policies and benefits.
Merchants’ dedication to providing innovative benefits is an important tool to not only attract the best associates but to retain them.
Family-friendly Policies
- Infants in the Workplace program
- flexible work configurations including a 7.5 hour work day, and both hybrid and fully remote options
- robust health-care coverage options
Merchants is so understanding of the flexibility often needed by parents of young children. If I’d like to flex my hours for a pediatric dentist appointment; use VTO for a school-related event; lean on my team for extra help when kids are home sick; or even keep my infant with me as I work, I know Merchants recognizes the extra challenges we face and provides framework for continued success and growth.
Merchants also offers an extremely in-depth Employee Assistance program with a wealth of resources all associates can tap into; counseling, coaching, crisis services, legal, financial, eldercare and childcare referrals, and an online library of countless resources including articles, webinars, well-being assessments, health trackers, well-being challenges, the Working Advantage discount program and more.
