Employers are losing
35 billion annually
because of employees that are unfocused by caregiving
Employers do not measure and thus do not realize the
extent to which employees are burdened by care: Many
employers (52%) do not track data on their employee’s
caregiving responsibilities. Few employers, therefore,
know the significant impact that caregiving has on the
productivity of employees. In the employee survey, three
out of four (73%) employees reported having some type
of current caregiving responsibility.
