"It is so important that we continue to honor our commitment to working mothers, as well as all employees," said David A. Rodriguez, executive vice president for global human resources, Marriott International. "Providing family-friendly benefits is not only the right thing to do, it strengthens our business by helping us attract and retain the very best talent."
This year, the magazine highlighted Marriott's flex staffing option, which allows employees to reduce hours, handpick projects and telecommute as needed. Also noted was Marriott's child-care discounts and on-site child-care facility at the Bethesda, Md., headquarters.
Methodology: Companies were selected for the 2009 Working Mother 100 Best Companies based on an extensive application with more than 500 questions on workforce, compensation, child care, flexibility programs, leave policies and more. This year, particular weight was given to benefits, flexibility and parental leave.
