Fortune Media and Great Place To Work Name Highlight to 2024 Best Workplaces for Parents List, Ranking No. 8

Fairfax, VA — Fortune Media and Great Place To Work® identified Highlight as one of the 2024 Fortune Best Workplaces for Parents™. This is Higlight’s  1st time being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at No. 8. Earning a spot means that Highlight is one of the best companies for parents to work for in the country. To determine the Best Workplaces for Parents, Great Place To Work analyzed the survey responses of over 635,000 employees with parenting responsibilities who work for Great Place To Work Certified™ companies.

“We’re incredibly proud to make our debut as a Best Workplace for Parents – this recognition is a true reflection of our commitment to the nearly 60% of employees in our workforce who are balancing careers with growing families. As our team and their families continues to evolve, we understand the importance of offering flexibility, expanding paid parental leave, and have worked hard to ensure our employees have the resources and space they need to thrive both professionally and personally. It’s an honor to be a workplace where families can flourish alongside Highlight’s success, and we’re excited to continue fostering this environment for years to come.” said, Highlight’s Director of People & Culture, Fiona Dykes.

 The Best Workplaces for Parents list is highly competitive. Great Place To Work, the global authority on workplace culture, determines its lists using its proprietary For All™ Methodology to evaluate and certify thousands of organizations in America’s largest ongoing annual workforce study. Over 1.3 million survey responses were received this year, representing the experiences of more than 8.2 million employees.

In addition to employee feedback, Great Place To Work collected company data on industry, revenue, employee demographics, parental leave, adoption benefits, flexible scheduling, and more. Winning companies were those that offered the most positive outcomes for working parents regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier.

“The need to provide for one’s family is at the heart of why many people go to work every day,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “The Best Workplaces for Parents understand the balance caregivers must maintain between job duties and responsibilities at home — and are finding a competitive advantage by meeting those needs.”
