Company ranked third in Ohio, fourth among industrial and
manufacturing peers as adoption-friendly workplace DAYTON, Ohio,
May 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Employees at Standard Register
(NYSE:SR) are not alone in recognizing the company's adoption
policy as an outstanding benefit. The Dave Thomas Foundation for
Adoption(R) recently recognized the company as one of the Best
Adoption-Friendly Workplaces in the country for 2007. Standard
Register is a leading provider of document and print management
services. The only Dayton-area company to be recognized, Standard
Register was ranked third on the list of Ohio's Best
Adoption-Friendly Workplaces, and the company received a ranking of
fourth on the list of national leaders in the industrial and
manufacturing markets. Rankings were based on employers' overall
adoption benefits, such as the amount of financial reimbursement
and paid leave available to employees who adopt. "By establishing a
beneficial and comprehensive adoption policy, Standard Register
realized the many advantages such a policy offers to not only the
individual employees but also the company as a whole," said Kathryn
Lamme, senior vice president, general counsel and secretary,
Standard Register. In her role at the company, Lamme also oversees
Human Resources. "Despite the fact that only a small percentage of
employees use such a benefit, it illustrates the goodwill of
companies and stresses the importance of family to existing and
prospective employees," she added. Established in January 2006,
Standard Register's policy on adoption provides employees with up
to $4,000 of financial assistance as well as up to four weeks of
paid leave. These benefits apply to both female and male employees.
"It is vital for companies to recognize that time together is
critical for families who adopt - time to allow both parents to
bond with their new child, and time to allow the child to adapt to
a new environment and bond with his or her new parents," said Megan
Trickler, Standard Register benefits specialist who drove for the
institution of the company's adoption policy - and is an adoptive
parent herself. "The adoption benefits provided by Standard
Register have been well received by employees, and as a company, we
look forward to helping others recognize the unequivocal joy that
adoption provides." The Foundation composed the Best
Adoption-Friendly Workplaces in America list from direct mail and
online surveys to CEOs and human resource executives from companies
across the U.S. Employers were ranked based on their adoption
benefits and were also categorized by size as well as by companies'
general support of adoption and adoptive families. To learn more
