Mayer Brown named one of the UK's most family-friendly employers

London — Mayer Brown has today been named one of the UK's most family-friendly employers for the fourth consecutive year. The firm is included in the annual Top 30 Employers for Working Families list compiled by the work-life balance charity, Working Families. 

The list includes both large and small employers from across the public, private and third sectors. Employers were assessed and scored on four areas — integration to organizational strategy and culture, policy, consistent practice and evidence — to build a comprehensive picture of their flexible and family-friendly policies and practices. The benchmark captures the experience of more than 450,000 UK employees across the organizations that took part. 

Annette Sheridan, Global Chief Human Resources Officer at Mayer Brown, said: “This recognition reflects our ongoing work to create a supportive work environment that enables our people to deliver their best work, whilst balancing the demands of their family responsibilities. Flexibility and family-friendly policies are key requirements in an increasingly diverse workplace. They also help us maintain our position as an employer of choice. We are proud to have earned our place on this list." 

“We are delighted to recognize the 30 outstanding organizations that made our Top Employers for Working Families list this year,” said Jane van Zyl, Chief Executive of Working Families.  “These employers excelled in our rigorous benchmarking process, proving they are leading the way in building family-friendly and flexible workplaces. Crucially, they are not just putting policies in place—they are building cultures that support their employees’ wellbeing.”
