Austin SHRM April Monthly Meeting
Topic:
Alleviating the Care Crisis:
The Role Employers Play in Providing Care
Employees today want to feel cared for by their employers and recognized as people — not just workers. Employers face challenges addressing the evolving needs of their workforce and providing support during the moments that matter. When employers lean into addressing the Care Crisis, they increase the likelihood of retention, reduce benefits, spend, and increase overall productivity. Join us to hear more about why it's the employer's role to help alleviate the escalating care crisis.
