As one of the Best Workplaces for Women™ in Greater China, FrieslandCampina China is committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where women feel supported and encouraged. Career and family go hand in hand. Being a working mom is a strength, not a limitation. That’s why we provide a comprehensive support system to help moms flourish in both their professional and personal lives.

Here’s how four inspiring FrieslandCampina moms are redefining success:

“FrieslandCampina never makes women choose between career and family.”

Over the past ten years, I’ve grown from a new hire to a senior employee—and became a mom of two adorable kids along the way. FrieslandCampina has never seen pregnancy or maternity leave as a barrier to career growth. My promotion opportunities were never affected, even during pregnancy or after returning to work.

Additionally, the company’s enhanced family leave policy allows me to be there for my loved ones when they need me most, while still pursuing my career goals. This level of trust and support makes me even more committed to growing with FrieslandCampina.

“FrieslandCampina gave me the opportunity to relaunch my career as a new mom.”

I joined FrieslandCampina five months postpartum—stepping into both a new company and a new phase of motherhood. Instead of viewing my status as a new mom as a limitation, FrieslandCampina welcomed me with open arms.

With flexible work arrangements, I could balance my job and childcare responsibilities. A dedicated buddy program helped me get up to speed quickly. Plus, FrieslandCampina’s culture of continuous learning and career growth—from mentorship programs to events like Women’s Day and 520 Appreciation Day—gave me confidence to aim higher and build a long-term career here.

“FrieslandCampina’s support has made my parenting journey so much easier!”

As a leader in the dairy industry, FrieslandCampina ensures new moms receive baby formula support—a benefit further expanded this year. The company also offers full medical insurance for employees’ children. Additionally, through the Friso Prestige WeChat Service Account, parents can consult top pediatricians from leading hospitals. “These benefits have significantly eased my anxieties as a working mom, allowing me to focus on both my career and my child’s well-being", Minzhang says.

“Returning to work after maternity leave felt overwhelming—until my FrieslandCampina colleagues stepped in.”

“As a data analyst, I worried about “mom brain” affecting my efficiency after giving birth. The sleepless nights, memory lapses, and overwhelming responsibilities made me anxious about returning to work.

However, my FrieslandCampina colleagues were incredibly patient and supportive. They gave me time to reacquaint myself with work, provided thorough updates on ongoing projects, and ensured a smooth transition back to my role. Their kindness and encouragement made all the difference, helping me regain confidence and balance work with motherhood”, Emma explains.
