Essential Employee Benefits for Working Caregivers
Essential employee benefits for working caregivers. In this insightful episode, we explore into the critical intersection of caregiving responsibilities and career management. With a staggering 73% of employees juggling work and caregiving, it's essential to explore how workplaces can better support this significant portion of their workforce. We discuss leveraging Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) as valuable tools for both employers and employees. For organizations, ERGs provide crucial insights into the needs of working caregivers, informing the development of relevant employee benefits and fostering a supportive company culture. We explore which employee benefits are most valued by caregivers.
Furthermore, we address the challenges faced by individuals who have stepped away from their careers to provide care. We offer practical advice on effectively positioning oneself for re-entry into the workforce, emphasizing how to highlight the valuable skills acquired through caregiving. This episode provides essential guidance for both employers seeking to support their caregiving employees and individuals navigating the complexities of balancing career and care.
