Description

Worksite wellness programs aim to assist employees as "whole individuals." How can we extend this approach to provide support for employees who are parents or caregivers to children? What impact does this have on employee satisfaction and productivity? What impact does this have on the community as a whole? Join us to explore the importance of these kinds of supports for parents in today's society, participate in a case study discussion on the success of The Wellbeing Partners' "Family Wellness Programing", and uncover ways to introduce family-centric support within your community. Spoiler alert: It's more than just offering paid family leave and lactation rooms!

Key Takeaways:

  • Participants will be able to discuss the evolving parenting landscape and its effects on the wellbeing of employees and families.
  • Participants will be equipped to leverage the supportive strength of community and assistance for parents and caregivers of children.
  • Participants can advocate for workplace policies and initiatives that prioritize the well-being of parents/caregivers and the children under their care.
