Lakeland: The Grocery Publix Shop Chain will start offering paid parental leave to employees who are new parents, company officials announce Wednesday.
The full-time and part-time workers who qualify will be able to remove the time during the first year of birth or adoption of a child, starting with the new year, the company said in Florida.
New benefits come when retailers throughout the US face workers’ shortcomings, and some offer new benefits to attract or retain workers.

“Publix is committed to being the right place to work, and we often review our benefits to continue to offer a comprehensive package to our colleagues,” said Director of Communication Maria, Publix .
The email does not offer details about how much time is paid from new parents.
The company held personally, owned by employees has 225,000 workers in nearly 1,300 stores in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
