More than one in six U.S. employees are providing informal caregiving for a relative. It is projected that the older adult population in the U.S. is going to double in size by 2050 from 48 million to 88 million. Employers will be affected by this as their employees will become distracted by this extra job of caring for a relative financially, emotionally, and figuratively. This may mean offering more resources, flexible schedules and offering more wellness benefits to actually care for the wellbeing of your employees.
Attend this event to become motivated in your workplace by recognizing your “flow” and “energy” that you bring every morning as well as the importance of understanding the need to offer caregiving benefits and why it may impact more employees in the near future.
You will hear from experts in the field of wellness and benefit offerings as well as a local employer that has taken the initiative of offering this benefit that is helping tremendously with caregiving.
