Robins & Morton has been named among the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption’s 18th annual 100 Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces, leading the way in providing adoption and foster care benefits and recognizing the need for this life-changing support.
The 2024 list includes a diverse group of organizations representing 22 industries. Robins & Morton ranks No. 1 in the architecture, engineering, and construction industry.
The Foundation partnered with RTI International, an independent, nonprofit research institute, to survey employers across the United States and score participants based on three criteria: financial reimbursement, paid leave, and the percentage of employees eligible for those benefits. In addition to the 100 Best list, the Foundation ranks employers by size, industry, paid leave, foster care benefits, and impact.
Robins & Morton offers a robust Adoption Assistance Program, featuring paid time off to complete the adoption process plus parental leave. Eligible team members can also request financial reimbursement of qualifying adoption expenses up to $14,000. In addition to the Adoption Assistance Program, the company’s benefits package features many family-focused offerings including care.com premium memberships, unlimited sick days, and fully covered vision and dental insurance for the employee and their dependents.
“We are honored to be ranked on this list,” Robins & Morton Director of Benefits Susie Brasher said. “This accolade reflects our commitment to supporting our team members through their journey of growing their families, and it emphasizes the value we place on creating an inclusive and supportive work environment. We will continue to strive for excellence in providing the best possible benefits and resources for our team members.”
“The Foundation is pleased to recognize organizations leading the way in making adoption and foster care supported options for every working parent,” said Rita Soronen, president & CEO of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. “By offering best-in-class benefits, these organizations are demonstrating the importance of being equitable to all the ways families are formed.”
