Retention rates for women coming back to work after maternity leave are 30% lower than normal
This is important: research from Careers After Babies has found that retention rates for women coming back to work after maternity leave are 30% lower than normal retention rates.
We all know retention costs businesses a fortune. And that the majority of businesses are outwardly committed to improving gender diversity. And that gender diverse businesses out perform others. And that women with children are no less ambitious or talented than they were before children.
There's so much we can do to try and retain women after children. Things like returning to work coaching, making proper use of KIT days during maternity leave to create a meaningful return to work (thank you to Dean Summers for raising this during our recent Mentoring Circle panel event), providing flexible working opportunities for women AND men to share the childcare burden, encouraging team and leadership use of shared paternity leave...where there's a will there's a way !
I booked a TSH blood test in London because I wanted to check my thyroid function and better understand some symptoms I had been experiencing. The process was straightforward, and I appreciated having the test explained clearly. I was happy with the professional service and the useful information the results provided.
I stumbled upon this clinic while looking for confidential women’s health support in London. The website felt calm and informative, which honestly made me keep reading longer than expected. https://thelunaclinic.com/
