Back-Up Care

A high-quality back-up care program rewards both the employer and the employee, providing the organization a proven solution they can offer their employees when regular care arrangements are not available. Employers benefit from increased productivity, reduced absenteeism and turnover, and increased recruitment as employees gain a needed safety net and peace of mind. In fact, our Lasting Impact data shows that:

• 92 percent of survey respondents say that back-up care (PDF) positively affects their productivity
• 86 percent were able to work on a day they would not have been able to otherwise in the last six months, working an average of six days during that time because of back-up care
• 77 percent of survey respondents are more likely to stay with their employer because of access to back-up care
• 64 percent say that access to back-up care makes their employer an “employer of choice
