MINNEAPOLIS, July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen LLP), the eighth largest accounting firm in the United States, announced today it has been named by Seramount as one of the 2024 100 Best Companies for working parents.

CLA joins other top organizations in the United States that ranked highly for paid time off and leave policies, inclusive benefits, wellness programs, flexible work schedules, recruitment, retention, and advancement, as well as company culture and accountability.

"CLA exists to create opportunities for its clients, people, and communities which we know we can better achieve by building a firm where people feel supported in all aspects of their lives – when our people thrive, our clients thrive," said Cathy Clarke, Chief Culture Officer at CLA. "Everyone at our firm works hard to make CLA a welcoming and inclusive place for families, so it is a testament to our entire team to be recognized by Seramount for a second straight year." 

"Our 100 Best Companies have been setting the standard on what is considered an inclusive workplace for parents and caregivers for over 40 years," says Subha V. Barry, President of Seramount. "Thanks to their dedication, benefits that were considered progressive are now considered the norm, like offering bereavement leave after a miscarriage. The mental welfare of employees continues to be a priority and we are thrilled to see almost 100% of companies offering support in this area."
