CAREGIVERS, I'M TRYING TO GET YOUR EMPLOYERS TO LISTEN! I want to help you on a long-term basis at work.
I am challenging employers and organizations to provide help to their caregivers at work in 2026.
Family caregiving is a workforce, financial, personal, public health and healthcare crisis.
Caregiving affects us ALL. Don't care what you look like, where you're from, who you worship or who you love.
73% of employees report caregiving responsibilities at home.
I hope all employers budgeted for caregivers in 2026, becase every company spends on the crisis of caregiving and the resulting stress and burnout.
That burnout leads to leaving careers, increased physical, emotional and mental health issues and so much more.
How to begin supporting them:
1. Create a culture of belonging and acceptance
2. Check your benefits. Are you offering benefits flexible enough to meet the needs of caregivers and others?
3. Discover who your caregivers are, quantify their impact, and support them so you can recover money lost on caregiving.
4. Just contact me...that's the easiest. 😊
