SUMMARY:Working Caregivers\; a baseline understanding
DESCRIPTION:Why should this matter to a business? In Ontario\, there are 2.5 million working caregivers\, providing physical\, mental\, and emotional support to a family member\, friend or neighbour while balancing priorities at work.\n\n30% of working caregivers are considering leaving their job to take better care of the person they are supporting. $1.3 billion is lost in workforce productivity in Canada annually due to caregiving demands\, yet many caregivers continue to go unseen and under-supported in the workplace (https://ontariocaregiver.ca/for-employers/).\n\nThe majority of caregivers in Ontario are between the ages of 26 to 64. There is a strong likelihood you currently have caregiving employees on your team and may see the number of caregiving employees grow over time. By proactively considering how to support working caregivers\, you can give your company a competitive advantage in recruiting and retaining employees.\n\nJoin the OCC and CCCE to learn about promising practices and how to shift organizational culture to better support employees which could reduce absenteeism\, sick days and unforeseen departures. Help build a resilient and sustainable workforce\, while learning about the services and supports that are available for working caregivers\, and their employers.
