Today I sat down with the Founder of The Balance Collective, Clara Wilcox to discuss the actions both employees and employers can take so that parents can have a positive return to work.

We covered in our conversation:

• What issues do you find that parents have when they return to work?
• How do parents feel about returning?
• How does the current cost of living crisis impact parents’ choices?
• What is the best practice?
• Why it’s important to have equity for return-to-work support – considering those who have breaks for bereavement, other caring responsibility, health needs.
• What you can do to support parents before they return (and before they leave!)
• The importance of a return-to-work induction and how to plan it.
