“Throughout the stay-at-home environment that we experienced during the pandemic, many parents were forced to make the decision to leave the workforce to care for their families. As a mom who was able to successfully re-enter the workforce after taking a sabbatical to care for my young children, I’m proud to announce this new alliance at Grainger, so future generations of women have the same opportunity,” Grainger Chief Human Resources Officer Kathleen Carroll said.
