Our commitment to equality and diversity on this International Women’s Day 2017

Happy International Women’s Day!

The Millennium Alliance is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce. We aim for our workforce to be truly representative of all sections of society and our customers. We also want each of our employees to feel respected and able to achieve their best within our company.

Our policies ensure that our company operates with equality and fairness in mind. We have created an environment of respect for all in our employment, whether temporary, part-time or full-time.

Here at Millennium Alliance, we work to ensure equality in pay and benefits, terms and conditions of employment, dealing with grievances and discipline, dismissal, redundancy, requests for flexible working, and selection for employment, promotion, training or other developmental opportunities.

We are also committed to creating a working environment free of bullying, harassment, victimization and unlawful discrimination, promoting dignity and respect for all, and where individual differences and the contributions of all staff are recognized and valued.

Earlier this year we became the first company in our industry to offer paid maternity and family leave. Unpaid leave is a huge concern for many expecting parents across the United States. The lack of paid leave causes many challenges, especially for new mothers looking to return to work. One such challenge being the difficulty of balancing the desire to experience a newborn’s precious firsts while ensuring a family’s financial future. Research has shown that the early weeks and months are vital to a child’s development. This is one of many reasons why it is imperative for mothers & fathers to spend adequate time with their newborns, unburdened by concerns about job security or immediate financial obligations. Since its inception, all Millennium Alliance expecting mothers have been guaranteed up to 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave to care for a new child.

We are celebrating International Women’s Day by saying thank you to all those who have helped us to launch and grow our company over past three years.

A message from our co-founder, Alex Sobol:

“Here at Millennium Alliance, we are committed to gender equality. We believe in hiring and promoting talented women. 

We celebrated our three-year anniversary last week, and we would not be in the position we are in as a company without the strong, dedicated, and talented women who make up a majority of our senior management team and company as a whole. Happy International Women’s Day and a special thank you to all of the amazing women who have contributed so much to our growth.“
