Eldercare: Helping Businesses Support Employees Who Are Caregivers

Scot Cheben

In today's multigenerational workforce, supporting employee caregivers isn't just compassionate-it's essential for sustainability and success.

When your employees assume caregiving roles outside of the workplace, it affects staff retention and attention, and therefore, your bottom line. As more and more people live longer and with myriad health limitations, many businesses have failed to keep pace. It's imperative to put proper infrastructure in place to support caregiving employees.

Eldercare: Helping Businesses Support Employees Who Are Caregivers seeks to help employers cope with the complex situations arising for those who need to care for their aging loved ones. It offers practical advice, including:

  • Why it is important for businesses to know the facts about caregiving
  • The financial effects for employees
  • The rules and guidelines of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
  • How your business can help its employees
  • External help and resources

Safeguard employee retention and a healthy workplace culture while ensuring continued profitability by providing resources and benefits to your caregiving employees. Help them manage the overwhelm of balancing caregiving and work, and you will both thrive.

Cheben, Scot: - Scot is a well-respected entrepreneur in the elder care industry who spent his early life working in aeronautics before owning his own home care business. He is a national keynote speaker for the eldercare industry as well as an instructor in dementia care.Scot first encountered the challenge of balancing caregiving with employment in 2008 when his father suffered a heart attack. There was no company policy for supporting caregiving employees he could not find the help he needed for his father. Realizing the growing need for caregivers, and the lack of employer guidance or awareness, he dedicated his life and career to aiding the eldercare industry.In 2011 he owned a home care franchise, Senior Helpers, which supplied highly trained caregivers to help the elderly live independently in their home. In 2014, he co-founded the Senior Providers Network to help educate caregivers and guide them to the right resources. This experience helped him transition into a career in the eldercare industry.
