Parents at Work
Finding the balance between work and family is an ongoing challenge, especially for working parents who often feel that there are not enough hours in the day. That’s why BME offers the peer coaching program Parents@Work to all working parents across all locations, whether expecting the arrival of a new baby or having young children at home. New parents are empowered to reach their personal and professional potential through coaching, exchanges and encouragement.
