Necessity proves to be the mother of retention

The Australian Financial Review --- Page: 58 : 28 August 2007
Original article by Catherine Fox

LexisNexis Summary
A number of Australian companies with large female workforces have developed new policies aimed at retaining skilled workers.

With more women currently graduating with law degrees than men, many Australian law firms are being forced to take action to retain female staff. However, the moves to provide benefits such as additional paid parenting leave or an on-site creche are not generally new initiatives, but are being adopted out of necessity.

Research conducted with Perpetual Limited employees suggests that it is becoming increasingly important to permit employees to take regular leave in order to maintain high levels of productivity.
