Corporate Bumps is a unique programme of workshops which support and educate men, women and employers during pregnancy, maternity and the return to work phase.
For organisations with employees at this transitional stage of their lives, improved education and knowledge within the workplace leads to clear benefits. These include:
- Improved support of expectant and new parents
- Reduced absenteeism during pregnancy
- Increased retention rates of women following maternity
- Creation of a ‘family friendly’ workplace
- Better protection against maternity litigation
The aim of Corporate Bumps is to provide support in the form of opportunities for attendees to discuss issues and concerns within a confidential environment. Learning is achieved through a variety of activities which focus on identified key stress points and balancing the needs of the individual with the workplace. This allows participants to manage their situation well, achieving a personal work life balance.
“There is no doubt that involving The Baby Gurus provides a means for the company to express how highly it values key staff who are on maternity leave. Attending a Corporate Bumps session gives the employee a boost both in terms of appreciating their personal circumstances and preparing them, in a supportive and inspirational context, for their return to the workplace. Feedback from employees who have been referred has been very favourable.” N.Gall, Human Resources, Oil States Industries UK Ltd.
