The Top Employers for supporting working mothers
This week our charity partner Working Families announced the winners of its ‘Special Awards’, aimed at recognising employers who support the work-life balance of all their employees. The awards honour companies that show excellence in seven categories, including workplace initiatives for parents and schemes such as flexible working. The results were presented at a ceremony yesterday afternoon which welcomed Mena McMahon, Cityparents Network Committee member and Co-Chair of the RBS Families & Carers Network, as keynote speaker.
We were delighted to be involved in supporting one of the awards this year, and congratulate all finalists and winners.
Cityparents was proud sponsor of the ‘Best for all stages of motherhood’ award, presented to jointly to Deloitte and Sacker & Partners.

Sarah Jackson, CEO of Working Families noted that “Flexibility is not just good for families, it’s good for business. Our awards recognise those employers who’ve made their flexible and work-life policies part and parcel of the way they run their organisations. Congratulations to all the 2016 winners: it’s this kind of action that will deliver the culture change we need for high performance in every UK workplace.”
