For Mercedes Benz,
“The best or nothing,” is more than a catchy corporate
tagline — it’s a mission statement that extends well
beyond its fleet of luxury cars. The world-renowned auto manufacturer
aims to live that mission every day in service of the 695 employees
working at its US Headquarters in Metro-Atlanta, offering a
state-of-the-art on-site child care center for Mercedes’ working
parents.
Lars Minns,
Mercedes-Benz North American CHRO, explains the unique ROI the center
offers: “I think if we have one or all families saying to us,
‘Thank you very much for this great benefit,’ that’s a
significant return on investment that a dollar amount can never
measure.” Though Minns emphasizes the non-numerical impact of
offering on-site child care, the center has also helped Mercedes
maintain a high retention rate in an Atlanta job market suffering from a
significant labor shortage.
See how Mercedes-Benz
partnered with Bright Horizons to deliver best-in-class child care,
better integrate work and life, and keep their top talent
in-house.
