Beautiful Location, But... - Anonymous employee Mount Vernon Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are dedicated to ensuring a productive and safe environment for all Mount Vernon employees. MVLA takes all reports of harassment very seriously by immediately investigating and taking appropriate action. In the last couple of years we engaged legal counsel to provide a comprehensive, annual Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation Prevention training and required that all current and new employees complete it. All MV supervisors and above, also received additional training by counsel to enhance commitment to safety and improve consistent employee communication. We strive to provide a comprehensive and competitive benefits package. For years, MVLA has provided eligible full-time employees with paid leave {at a rarely offered rate of 100% of compensation} through short-term disability for up to 12-weeks. This benefit covers maternity leave (at least 5-7 weeks paid at 100%) as well as leave required for injury, surgery and/or illness. . We continuously seek to enhance our employee benefits and recently added a parental leave benefit, which provides eligible employees with an additional two weeks of paid time off (at 100% compensation) to parents for bonding during the birth or adoption of a child. We appreciate you letting us know about your concerns, if you have any questions, please feel free to email us at hrstaff@mountvernon.org
