For the third year in a row, Careforth has been named as one of the Best Places to Work for Working Daughters. This award recognizes companies that go above and beyond in creating a workplace culture, policies, and benefits that support family caregivers.
“We are deeply honored that Working Daughter has recognized our commitment to fostering a workplace that values and supports family caregivers,” said Mary Schafer, Careforth’s senior vice president of people & culture. “At Careforth, we believe that our associates, who are the heart of our caregiving mission, deserve an environment that prioritizes their unique needs. By embedding empathy, flexibility, and work-life balance into our culture, we ensure that both caregiving and career aspirations can thrive side by side. Our focus remains on creating a supportive space where every associate’s personal well-being is celebrated and nurtured.”
“The good news is that our research shows that companies that do support caregiving employees are rewarded with a loyal, engaged workforce,” said Liz O’Donnell, founder of Working Daughter. “The companies on this list understand that supporting working daughters, and sons, at work is a business imperative.”
More than 1 in 6 working Americans assist with the care of an elderly or disabled family member, relative, or friend. Seventy percent of those caregivers suffer work-related difficulties due to their dual roles. The cost to businesses from caregivers leaving the workforce is an estimated $3.3 billion.
