A hidden gem - this service was quite unknown to me and I didn't realise the extent of the support offered. A fantastic benefit offered by Shell.

The consultant was very friendly, empathetic and knowledgeable. She made me feel confident that I would be able to return to work with no worries.
P&G employee and parent

I was very impressed and hugely grateful for the service. If I had not been able to use the service and had such a wonderful nanny, I would have had to have taken 3 days off work as my other nanny broke her leg. Many thanks.
Management consulting firm employee

We recognised that the demographic of our employees is changing. More of them live away from their families, but increasingly have growing eldercare responsibilities, which is why we introduced the service.

Top Employers for Working Families

2011 A-Z List & Awards Announced

28/09/2011

My Family Care is delighted to partner with Working Families in delivering these awards.

The increase in the number or organisations entering is encouraging. This reflects employers' growing understanding of the importance and mutual benefits that adopting a flexible family friendly approach can deliver.

Recognising top employers

The Top Employers for Working Families Benchmark and Awards recognises organisations across the UK that do the most to support the work-life balance needs of all their employees.

To enter, all organisations completed a robust benchmark survey which examined their work-life balance policies and practices.

The results clearly demonstrate that employers are showing a growing acceptance that flexible working and work-life integration are vital to an organisation’s effectiveness and business success.

The final list is compiled by taking the entrants with the highest scores in the benchmark survey.
