Caring Workplace® Program

Caring Workplace

With the population of people aged 60 or older expected to double by 2050, the number of people in charge of caring for these individuals is also on the rise. In fact, 16 million current employees balance full-time jobs with their caregiving responsibilities. While this is triple the amount since 2001—and continuing to grow—most companies still have no formal policies in place to give these employees access to much-needed eldercare services, which can result in productivity losses.

The rising demand for family members to provide care will continue to increase as the older adult populations continue to grow. Boston University’s Center on Work & Family found family-friendly policies and programs reduced absenteeism and stress while improving morale.

Access to a geriatric care manager provides invaluable support, consultations, and information to an employee with eldercare responsibilities.
