One of our award winners from 2023, QBE, spoke about the value of forward-thinking organisations sharing their experiences in supporting fathers in the workplace. Read more in our library of #WorkingDads case studies. workingdadsemployerawards.com
A quote from Nikki Lees, Director of Culture & Employee Experience at QBE, that reads "The Working Dads Employer Awards are a great opportunity to recognise, celebrate, and share the work organisations are doing to support fathers and promote equality in the workplace. It's also a fantastic opportunity to connect with other organisations leading the way."

The #WorkingDads Employers Awards celebrate progress being made by organisations, while encouraging more employers to break down gendered barriers to caregiving, ultimately driving greater gender equality and enabling more women to reach senior roles. 🔗: workingdadsemployerawards.com
A quote from Dr Holly Birkett that reads “We know from our research in this area that supporting parents at work not only enhances family wellbeing and fosters a healthier work-life balance, but can also help organisations reduce pay gaps and tackle the motherhood penalty.”
