Caregiving support for today’s workforce
Caregiving isn’t a niche moment. From supporting an aging parent to navigating special needs or managing complex health challenges, caregiving is a common workplace reality across life stages.
Because many employees don’t identify as “caregivers,” organizations often underestimate its reach. The right support can help ease the load so employees stay healthier and more present.
Over half (57%) of working caregivers of an elderly or sick adult also care for young children under age 18.¹
