The Benefits And Perks - Attracting America's Top Female Talent

Gender diversity in the workplace isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s the smart thing to do. More women in leadership roles can lead to higher profits – it’s that simple.

In fact, there have been a number of recent studies pointing to the business and cultural benefits of gender diversity.

Studies have found that companies with more women on their executive teams have better financial performance. This confirms what the team at Aflac has known for decades: There are business advantages to having more women in leadership positions. Aflac understands the value of diversity in the workplace. After all, Aflac doesn’t just talk the talk; it walks it: Two-thirds of Aflac’s workforce are female. Nearly one-third of Aflac’s executive leadership are women. 1

Aflac knows that the most successful businesses are looking for ways to compete for top-tier female talent. How do you find them? Pay is important, but the right benefits package can be just as compelling.

Flex time, parental leave, child care, health care and work-from-home options are popular, especially among women.

Aflac helps companies of all sizes build flexible benefit packages – offering voluntary insurance and value-added services. These benefits can be particularly attractive to women and any employee who is caring for a family.
