Caregiving is a full-time job—and for millions, it’s their second one.

The newly released 2025 Caregiving in the U.S. report confirms what HR leaders and benefit teams are seeing firsthand:
70% of caregivers are working
50% report disruptions to their job—arriving late, leaving early, or missing work altogether
31% have drained their short-term savings
22% have taken on more debt

And despite the growing need, only 49% of working caregivers say their supervisor even knows they’re a caregiver.

At Mellie, we meet this reality every day. Behind these stats are parents, spouses, and adult children struggling to stay afloat at home and at work.

Caregiver-friendly policies aren’t just nice to have—they’re essential to retention, productivity, and equity in the workplace. Employers have the power to make a difference.
Let’s stop asking employees to choose between their paycheck and their parent, their child, or their spouse.

Caregiving Doesn’t Take a Summer Break☀️

At Mellie, we offer:
👩‍⚕️ Dedicated care coordinators
📲 Tools to manage routines & docs
🛌 Respite care options

Let’s build workplaces where no caregiver has to do it all alone. 🤝

Caregiving Is a Workforce Issue—Not Just a Personal One.

🧠 73% of employees in the U.S. are managing caregiving responsibilities right now.
But only 24% of employers recognize the impact this has on productivity.
➡️ 40% of caregivers are also dealing with stress, anxiety, or depression
➡️ Many are quietly struggling—losing productivity or taking leave
➡️ And they’re 2x more likely to leave their jobs without explanation

This isn’t just a home issue. It’s a hidden driver of turnover, absenteeism, and disengagement.

💡 That’s why we created Mellie to support working caregivers before burnout leads to workforce loss.

If you’re not addressing caregiving, you’re missing a major lever for retention and employee well-being.

Caregiving is the hidden factor behind rising leave and employee burnout.

A third of your team is managing care responsibilities at home—whether it’s an aging parent, a child with special needs, or a partner recovering from surgery.

But most employers have no idea who those caregivers are.

📉 What happens when care demands go unspoken?
– More unplanned absences
– Early exits from work
– Higher risk of burnout
– Increased use of extended leave
