Companies
From next year, UK workers will be looking after more older relatives than younger children
More companies than ever are rising to the “workforce carers” challenge and introducing benefit packages to help, with many prominent businesses across a range of industries having launched care support programmes for their employees.
Two Generations can help you innovate your carer benefits to improve productivity, employee satisfaction and employee retention rates and gain positive reputational benefits and feedback from your workforce.
"This year’s introduction of statutory carer’s leave highlights the needs of employees with caring responsibilities.
"But while a week’s unpaid leave will help, a wide range of eldercare benefits are now available for employers wanting to do more...
"Reaching the point where caring for an elderly relative is seen on a par with bringing up a child will help to build workplaces where employees feel able to balance, rather than juggle, their work and caring responsibilities."
