MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- LSI Corporation
(NYSE: LSI) ranked No. 1 in its industry for the second year in a
row on the Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces List released by the
Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. LSI also ranked No. 3 in the
nation overall as well as No. 3 in the large employer size
category.
Rankings for the Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces List are
determined by an analysis of a company's adoption benefits
available to employees who adopt, such as financial reimbursement
and paid leave. The Foundation compiled the results from its annual
survey of U.S. employers.
"Families beginning the process of adoption are embarking on a
life-changing journey," said Gautam
Srivastava, senior vice president of human resources at LSI.
"The steps involved in growing a family through adoption take time
and substantial resources. LSI believes in the importance of
financially assisting and otherwise supporting employees in their
efforts to create a family."
Today, more than 107,000 children in U.S. foster care are
available for adoption. Each year, nearly 26,000 of these youths
will end up leaving the system upon turning 18 without having ever
been adopted by a family. The release of the fifth annual Best
Adoption-Friendly Workplaces List helps the Foundation increase
foster care adoption awareness while celebrating those businesses
that support adoptive families.
