AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Facing continued economic uncertainty, many employers are cutting budgets, but when it comes to investing in family care benefits, recalibration is the watchword. According to Care.com’s 2023 Future of Benefits Report, C-suite leaders remain focused on driving productivity and retaining talent, key objectives supported by family care benefits. The research, conducted in December 2022, surveyed 500 C-Suite level executives and HR decision-makers to assess how tightened budgets and a forecasted recession were impacting employee benefit investments with a particular focus on family care.
“In challenging times, smart leaders hunker down and hone in on what they know will keep their businesses resilient and drive the bottom line, and the data doesn’t lie: supporting working families does both,” said Tim Allen, CEO of Care.com. “Childcare and senior care are top-of-mind for all working families and by prioritizing them, employers align their employees’ interests with their own, which can lead to billions in savings annually in lost productivity, absenteeism and turnover. Simply put, care lets families work.”
