Alright Hilton, that’s Pretty Great
Alright, points to the Hilton hotel company, because this is pretty good of them.
Hilton is among one of the companies that has spent the past year updating their policy regarding maternity leave. Unlike many places, where the best maternity leave is set aside for white collar positions and upper management, Hilton is making a concentrated effort to help all their employees, including their hourly workers. This means Hilton has among the best best parental leave benefits offered by almost any global hospitality company.
The new changes to their system allows two weeks of paid parental leave for new fathers and adoptive parents, while providing ten weeks of fully paid maternity leave for birth mothers. And considering how little other companies provide, that’s really good.
It’s a huge change for the industry, and should give lots of other companies something to keep in mind. It’s an incredibly good policy, and here’s hoping more places keep it in mind.
