Things have been heavy latley for those of you managing mid-sized businesses. With the Supreme Court overturning Roe v Wade I wanted to provide a sample response of how one company is supporting their workforce in maintaining their women’s healthcare.

Dick's Sporting Goods once again is leading the way in guiding issues facing the workplace. According to an employee, Dick's sent this email to their workforce on Friday indicating their support for employees seeking abortion and how they will fund this healthcare service. After discussions with a few small business leaders about this very topic, I felt that this is a good model to use as you develop your own policies. Here you will find a list of other major companies supporting women.
