For the 11th time, Chrysler has again been named one of the “100 Best Companies for Working Mothers” by Working Mother Magazine. This year Chrysler is the only automotive company to be included on the “Best Companies” list.

Nancy Rae, Executive Vice President – Human Resources and Corporate Communications for Chrysler:

“Being recognized by Working Mother as one of the ’100 Best’ is truly an honor and validates Chrysler’s commitment to work-life effectiveness. We take great pride in providing programs and resources that help our employees balance the demands of work and family. Together with the UAW, we have consistently provided progressive work-life programs, understanding that employees will be more productive and engaged when they have peace of mind at home.”

“Women are an important part of Chrysler’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, and we are privileged to be able to continue the legacy. Going forward, Chrysler’s commitment to diversity and inclusion will continue to be a major source of competitive advantage for our company.”

Working Mother Magazine recognized Chrysler’s efforts to provide innovative programs focused on employee and family needs, including a broad range of support services, child-care and eldercare referral programs and its National Child Care Network. Working Mother Magazine believes Chrysler offers working mothers a variety of flexible work options from flex time to job-sharing and assists to help employees to become successful in both their professional and personal lives.

UAW Vice President General Holiefield, director of the union’s Chrysler Department:

“The UAW places a high priority on addressing issues at the bargaining table that improve the quality of life for our members and their families. We’re very proud to work with Chrysler to provide ‘people programs’ that help employees maintain a healthy balance in fulfilling their job and family responsibilities.”

This year marks the 23-year anniversary for the “Best Companies” list, which is considered the benchmark for work-life practices in corporate America. Celebrating its 29th anniversary in 2008, Working Mother magazine reaches more than two million readers and is the leading national magazine for career-committed mothers.
