Sydney, Australia, May 18, 2022–Workday, Inc(NASDAQ:WDAY), a leader in enterprise cloud applications forfinanceandhuman resources, today announced its formal certification as aFamily Inclusive Workplace．工作日是Austra最早的企业之一lia to achieve certification, with only 70 companies certified since the initiative launched just 12 months ago.

Family Friendly Workplaces(FFW)是一种联合倡议led by UNICEF Australia and Parents At Work. It aims to create National Work + Family Standards for all Australian workplaces and establish a benchmark designed to better support employees to manage their work and family caring needs. The initiative also aims to address systemic barriers to women's workforce participation and gender inequality, such as access to flexible work, paid parental leave, and child and aged care support.

As part of the certification process, Workday submitted its employee policies and benefits for analysis and benchmarking against the FFW national standards, to assess if its policies support a family friendly workplace. Workday was commended for its progressive policies and benefits, which include features such as financial contributions towards aged or child carers, financial assistance for those experiencing domestic violence, and access to Maven, a virtual clinic for women’s and family health, offering holistic care for fertility, pregnancy, and parenting. Workday’sFFW case studyprovides further details on Workday policies and benefits in Australia.

As part of the certification, Workday also committed to implementing a two-year Action Plan (a voluntary action plan which FFW mandates is developed by all certified companies) which further outlines how Workday can continue to invest in and develop its family friendly workplace culture.

"We are delighted to be certified as a Family Inclusive Workplace and incredibly proud to be one of the first 70 organisations in Australia to join this important initiative”, said Jo-Anne Ruhl, vice president and managing director, Workday Australia and New Zealand.

"Workday policies and benefits are carefully designed to ensure we are an employer of choice, but we are also committed to embedding a pervasive culture of belonging and diversity across our business. We know it’s both the right thing to do, and that it also results in better business outcomes; including better employee engagement, and more business innovation. We know both our employees and our customers will benefit from this initiative over the long term."

The Australian Government also recently endorsed the FFW initiative in the Women's Budget Statement and has pledged $1.4 million over three years to support 500 more workplaces to meet the National Work & Family Standards and be certified as a Family Inclusive Workplace.
