About this Event
Caring4Elders provides bespoke training to help employees manage and enjoy being a carer of elderly people. Feedback from employers confirms this supports staff wellbeing and helps reduce stress. Our clients include Arup, AstraZeneca, Cambridge University and Addenbrookes Hospital.
To mark Carers Rights Day, we are offering a 45 minutes taster session to UK HR and Occupational Health Professionals keen to support their employees through the changes they need to make as a carer. We will be sharing our innovative ‘Final 15’ framework which uses 6 complementary topics to help your employees think through their role in supporting those approaching their final years.
1 in 8 carers are in paid employment and many give up work or reduce their hours because of the stresses and strains of balancing working life and caring. With this number likely to grow, our offer helps employees explore positive approaches and strategies, enabling them to respond to the challenges of incorporating the needs of an elderly person into their life.
The COVID pandemic has put a new spotlight on the vulnerability of older people and caused additional worries for their families. As workforces age the focus of many mature employees is now on the needs of their older family members. This greater intergenerational dependency is creating a ‘New Normal’ for workers where heightened caring responsibilities are to the fore. Greatly increased home-working will also be part of the post COVID normal but that also creates challenges for employers in ensuring employees can access the support they need.
