America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents & Families 2024 (2025)

A working parent really has two jobs: one at the workplace and one at home. It's no wonder that as companies compete for top talent, a key selling point is their emphasis on work-life balance, which statistics show is imperative in today's corporate landscape.

The Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics released figures in April showing that in 2023, 67 percent of all married-couple families with children had both parents employed. That total was up from the previous year, when 65 percent of families had both parents working. And according to a May 2022 study from The Ohio State University, 66 percent of working parents reported feeling burned out.

As more parents juggle raising a family with their work obligations, they want employers who offer flexibility and are supportive of work-life balance. Newsweek is partnering with data analytics firm Plant-A Insights Group to help parents find the companies that stand out for how they prioritize the needs of families.

One thousand companies are included in the second annual ranking of America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents and Families, which is based on data from more than 113,000 working parents who provided more than 693,000 company reviews. Plant-A and PrivCo, a search engine for private company data, identified and documented key indicators related to how much parents feel supported in a workplace. They analyzed the number of corporate programs benefiting families, such as the availability of child care, and information from social media, including company ratings and reviews from parents.

For parents who are part of the working world, the companies recognized here will help them shoulder the responsibilities that come with raising a happy family.

METHODOLOGY

73% of mothers and more than 92% of fathers with children under age 18 were active in the labor force in 20221, highlighting the essential contribution of parents and caregivers to economic productivity. Recognizing and accommodating their unique needs and challenges is vital for employers.By proactively implementing supportive policies, businesses enable working parents to flourish both in their personal and professional lives, ultimately benefiting from the diverse perspectives and skills they bring to the workforce.

The methodology for America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents & Families 2024 is based on a five-stage evaluation.

The first phase was a pre-study survey that interviewed HR professionals to identify current and future employee satisfaction drivers.

The second phase was the main employee survey among parents who reviewed employers they were familiar with. The independent study is based on >113,000 working parents who provided more than 693,000 company reviews collected in 2022 and 2023.

The third phase was an elaborate desk research project in which we collected overall 7 KPIs relevant for parents in the workplace (e.g. reviews and information from social media platforms with a focus on parents and caregivers, corporate programs supporting parents & families).

In the fourth phase, we applied media monitoring, reviewing all published press of the past 24 months (12/9/2021 – 12/10/2023) of all recognized companies to identify potential legal disputes around the workplace.

The fifth step was the validation step. We calculated an individual company score based on our scoring model. The best companies in the tiers of 5,000+ employees, 1,000 to 4,999 employees and 500 to 999 employees have been recognized as "America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents & Families 2024".
