- Seramount (formerly Working Mother Media) recognized Zoetis for
forward-thinking programs and benefits related to parental leave,
family support and job flexibility
- Kristy Earley-Murray, Strategic Veterinarian, Named Zoetis’
Working Mother of the Year
- Chip Dorsey, Business Development VP, Named Zoetis’ First-Ever
Working Father of the Year
For the eighth year in a row, Zoetis has been named one of
Seramount’s 100 Best Companies (previously known as the Working
Mother 100 Best Companies list). The company was also named to
Seramount’s Best Companies for Dads list for the first time. Both
awards reflect Zoetis’ commitment to providing colleagues with a
range of family-friendly benefits and flexible work
arrangements.
“The COVID-19 pandemic continues to present challenges and
uncertainty for all of our colleagues, especially our working
parents and caregivers,” said Roxanne Lagano, Executive Vice
President, Chief Human Resources Officer and Global Operations at
Zoetis. “We believe it is absolutely essential to offer
comprehensive benefits that protect and enhance the variety of
health and well-being needs of our colleagues and their loved ones.
We also understand how important flexibility is when it comes to
leading a balanced and productive life, and we are committed to
making flexibility a lasting part of our culture. We are honored to
once again be named one of Seramount’s 100 Best Companies, and we
are thrilled to earn a place for the first time on the Best
Companies for Dads list.”
Kristy Earley-Murray Named Zoetis’ Working Mother of the
Year
As part of the 100 Best Companies recognition, Zoetis named
Kristy Earley-Murray its 2021 Working Mother of the Year. A
Strategic Veterinarian in the company’s Midwest region and mother
of three young children, Kristy draws her inspiration from her own
mother, whose work ethic and devotion to her family compelled
Kristy to help others in need. “Whether it’s being there for a
colleague who is struggling to find balance as a working mom, or
talking to other veterinarians about compassion fatigue and the
critical need for self-care, I understand the importance of
community and strive to make a difference wherever I can – big or
small,” she said. Kristy also holds a leadership role within the
Differently-abled & Neurodiversity Alliance (DNA) colleague
resource group at Zoetis. “As the mother of a neurodivergent child,
I leapt at the opportunity to be part of this supportive group at
Zoetis. Connecting with peers who have similar experiences has
provided me much comfort during times of uncertainty and I hope my
involvement in DNA can provide other parents with the same,” she
said. Learn more about Kristy’s story here.
Chip Dorsey Named Zoetis’ First-Ever Working Father of the
Year
As part of its inaugural inclusion on Seramount’s Best Companies
for Dads list, Zoetis named Chip Dorsey, Vice President of Business
Development, its first-ever Working Father of the Year. A dedicated
leader, mentor and father to two young boys, Chip’s role models
growing up were his parents, both doctors who modeled a comfortable
overlap between parenting and working. When Chip’s mother passed
away at the beginning of the pandemic, he and his family relocated
to California to be closer to loved ones. “The support of my
colleagues and the Zoetis culture made this shift as smooth as
possible, reinforcing that it was the right choice for my family.
Zoetis provided me with the opportunity to work fully remote, which
has allowed me to spend much more time with my sons. I get to watch
them learn and grow, while still pursuing a fulfilling career with
growth and development potential.” Chip also serves as a mentor to
other colleagues. “I encourage young fathers to be transparent
about what they want to accomplish and speak to them about
prioritizing their values in order to find balance in their own
lives,” said Chip. Learn more about Chip’s story here.
