Caregiving Support, a Benefit that Drives Productivity, Quality of Life, and Retention in Your Top Performers — A Conversation with Kristin Spodobalski of Wellthy
Manage episode 481590720 series 3580470
At the 2022 edition of the North American HR Executive Summit we spoke with Kristin Spodobalski of Wellthy about one of the most impactful things companies can do to support their people: Offer help when they are taking care of loved ones.
It is beyond our control to know when we might need to take care of a friend or loved one, but when that responsibility does come to us, of course it is a priority that puts everything else to one side. How does that impact people who want to continue to do well at work while needing to devote so much of their energies to their personal responsibilities? What should employers of choice be doing to go the extra mile in supporting their working caregivers? How does that work in the real-world, and how does knowing that support is there impact how people view their employer?
All these questions and more are explored in this important conversation. Give it a listen!
