NAPLES ALLIANCE FOR CHILDREN HONORS LOCAL FAMILY FRIENDLY BUSINESSES

NAPLES ALLIANCE FOR CHILDREN 2010 FAMILY FRIENDLY BUSINESS DESIGNATION

NAFC OFFERS COLLIER COUNTY BUSINESSES A TREMENDOUS OPPORTUNITY
For strengthening morale inside your business

For presenting your business to the outside community as a valued workplace

For participating in NAFC local business support programs
NAFC is committed to providing the tools needed to help create a work environment that meets the expanding and challenging role of the working parent. Business and resource professionals are available to provide information and assistance in making your workplace family friendly. Call 649-5260 for information or an appointment.

The importance of family policies and benefits in the workplace is becoming crucial to men and women when they evaluate employment opportunities and also to employers who compete for working parents in the labor market. Employers are now called upon to create a work environment that meets the expanding and challenging role of the working parent. Family Friendly workplace programs payoff in dividends by attracting and retaining the best employees, increasing productivity, increasing employee morale, reducing turnover, absenteeism and tardiness, and reducing health costs related to stress. Naples Alliance for Children encourages all businesses, large and small, to have workplace policies and programs which assist employees to take an active part in raising their children. Call 649-5260 for information or an appointment.

Local businesses that exemplify a family friendly workplace by meeting some or all of the established criteria will receive the NAFC Family Friendly Business designation. Plaques were presented to the designees at the annual April 7 NAFC Celebration Dinner. A logo is available for use on letterheads and other printed materials. This year we honored 30 businesses and one business was honored as the Family Friendly Businesses of 2010.

The NAFC Employer of the Year is Naples News Media Group (Naples Daily News)
