JERICHO, NY, Aug 20 (MARKET WIRE) --
For the past two years, Darby Dental Supply, LLC, the largest
all-telesales distributor of dental merchandise, has had a Full Pay
Deployment Program in place for its National Guard and Reserve member
employees. Equally important, the program also ensures that their jobs
will be waiting for them when they return.
The policy was implemented at the request of the Ashkin family, who own
the privately-held company. Three generations of Ashkins have operated
Darby Dental Supply under a core philosophy that Darby employees are part
of an extended family and should be treated as such.
According to Darby president Gary Rosenberg, "The Ashkin family and
executive management of Darby Dental Supply believe that no employee's
family should become financially strapped when their key source of income
is deployed to preserve the freedom we often take for granted. We've
noticed that our National Guard and Reserve members who return to work
after deployment are more focused and less stressed if they don't come
home to unpaid bills, uncertain job security, or worse."
"Knowing that my family was able to live the lifestyle they are accustomed
to was very important to me," said Memphis resident Antonio Bengco, a US
Army reservist who recently returned from being stationed at Fort Irwin,
California. "The Full Pay Deployment Program is one of the best benefits a
company can offer in these troubled times."
"We wish our employees were not deployed, and we pray for their safe
return," said Rosenberg. "Until then, we'll do our best to ensure their
families are provided for. It's the least we can do."
