PLAYBOOK

A playbook to best practices for caregiver employee resource groups

With more employees than ever taking on caregiving responsibilities at home, employer support is more vital than ever. At Family First, we believe that boosting employee well-being, engagement, and performance requires meaningful benefits backed by data.  

A caregiving solution like Family First solves many of the challenges employers and working caregivers are facing: 

• Retention, engagement, and attraction  
• Mental health and burnout—Family First has reduced employee burnout by over 180% 
• Knowledge on caregiving—70% of caregivers report receiving no education on caregiving from their care recipient’s physician 

Did you know? Employee caregivers spend an average of 23 hours a week on unpaid caregiving and are 2x more likely to develop a mental health and/or chronic condition versus non-caregivers. 

Not sure if caregiving is an employee need? The best place to start is through employee feedback. Our Employee Resource Group Best Practices Playbook, includes questions you can ask employees to assess their caregiving needs and learn what really matters to them.
