Motherly, a digital media brand empowering its 40+ million monthly audience to thrive, today announced it has been named to the Parity.Org Best Companies for Women to Advance™ List for 2022. The ParityLIST™ recognizes organizations that are creating a culture and conditions in which women can rise through recruiting, promotion, and compensation practices, leadership representation, and benefits and policies that collectively help companies achieve gender parity.

“At Motherly, we take motherhood seriously because when mothers thrive, families and communities thrive. We launched Motherly in 2015 as a company built by moms, for moms. We feel very honored to be acknowledged as a 'best company for women to advance' because we believe advancing women in the workforce is smart business and critical to creating strong families,” said Jill Koziol, CEO and co-founder of Motherly.

“We continually assess our policies and procedures to ensure we are supporting the advancement of all of our employees. We take a flexible and holistic approach in the creation of our policies and benefit offerings including: flexible work schedules, remote work locations, unlimited PTO, professional development funding, compensation equality, paid parental leave, and health and well being programs for employees and their families,” said Tonika Starks, Director of People Operations at Motherly.

The 2022 ParityLIST honorees had a number of policies and practices in common, such as:

  • Flexible working hours (98%)
  • Paid sick leave for both full-time (100%) and part-time (79%) employees
  • Equal family leave for both men and women (84%)
  • A culture of encouraging men to take their full family leave (95%)

“The parity problem is complex—but it’s not insurmountable,” said Cathrin Stickney, Party.org's founder and CEO. “The extraordinary performance of this year’s honorees proves that a genuine commitment and focus, coupled with the right tools, measures, and practices, will absolutely move the needle toward fairness.”For more details, visit: www.parity.org/best-companies.
