Navient Named a Best Place to Work for Caregivers
September 27 2023 - 8:30AM
Navient (Nasdaq: NAVI), a leader in technology-enabled education
finance and business processing solutions, has been recognized for
the second year as a Best Place to Work for Working Daughters,
according to Working Daughter, a community for women balancing
eldercare with their careers. The annual list recognizes companies
that support family caregivers and also raises awareness of how
businesses help make caregiving and professional success
compatible.
"The companies on this list understand that supporting working
caregivers is a business imperative,” said Liz O’Donnell, Working
Daughter founder. “While many companies have established
initiatives to assist employees who are parents, it is equally
critical to acknowledge and support employees who are caring for
aging parents and other adult family members.”
Working Daughter finds that more than one in six working
Americans assist with the care of a family member, relative, or
friend who is elderly or has a disability. Seventy percent of those
caregivers suffer work-related difficulties due to their dual
roles.
“We’re proud of the employee benefits Navient offers to help
relieve the unique pressures of working caregivers,” said Mike
Smith, Navient’s chief human resources officer. “From dependent
care assistance and employee resource groups to mental health and
wellbeing programs, we’re doing our very best to ensure our team's
success and help each employee fulfill commitments to families of
all kinds.”
