LSI Corporation Named No. 1 in Its Industry Among America's Most Adoption-Friendly Workplaces
LSI also ranked No. 3 overall by national nonprofit public charity dedicated to dramatically increasing the adoptions of children waiting in foster care
MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- LSI Corporation (NYSE: LSI) today announced that for the second year in a row it has been named "One of America's Most Adoption-Friendly Workplaces" by the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. Notably, LSI is ranked No. 1 in its industry and is ranked No. 3 overall on the 2010 list.
"We continue to see an upswing in companies offering adoption benefits to help their employees when they adopt," said Rita Soronen, executive director of the Foundation. "There is nothing more important in the world than our families, and we're pleased to see companies such as LSI offer generous adoption support to its employees."
Rankings for America's Most Adoption-Friendly Workplace list are determined by an analysis of a company's adoption benefits – financial reimbursement and paid leave – available to employees who adopt. The Foundation compiles the results from survey data collected from hundreds of U.S. employers.
"Adoption is a wonderful option for starting or building a family," said Gautam Srivastava, senior vice president of Human Resources at LSI. "The process can be emotional, time-consuming, and the costs can be substantial. We believe it's important to financially assist employees in their efforts to adopt, as well as provide them with paid time off to bond with their new child. Helping colleagues through this life-changing event sends a strong message that we value personal well-being and family life."
The release of the fourth annual America's Most Adoption-Friendly Workplace List helps the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption increase foster care adoption awareness while acknowledging businesses that go the extra mile to support adoptive families.
