According to the Surgeon General, 41% of parents say most days they are so stressed they cannot function. Employers face an urgent need to attract and retain high-quality workers, but poor work-life balance and high childcare costs are pushing working parents to the brink. Some are even leaving the workplace entirely.
The Clark-Fox Policy Institute has released a new Employer Toolkit to help employers be leaders in creating family-friendly businesses. Employers and employees who want to create a family-friendly workplace can start by understanding the benefits their company already offers for employees. Use our new toolkit to assess your company’s current policies and identify where benefits can be enhanced or added.
When we released our Family-Friendly Business Policies briefs, we heard from businesses that they needed more guidance on how to make these changes. With this toolkit, employers don’t have to wait. They can take action right now to help their employees and their businesses thrive.
