Caregiving is an increasingly common part of employees’ lives — and an important consideration for benefits strategy. Today, 71% of employees are balancing work with caregiving, including care for children, aging family members, and other loved ones.

Insights from more than 300 benefits leaders at large U.S. organizations show that caregiving support is now viewed as a critical part of supporting employees and maintaining workforce stability. Eight in ten leaders plan to expand caregiving benefits, with an emphasis on support that evolves across life stages.

Benefits leaders point to clear outcomes when caregiving needs are addressed: fewer unplanned absences, stronger retention, and better focus at work.
