After more than two years of adapting, pivoting, reflecting, and forecasting, we find ourselves in a working paradigm unlike anything we might have predicted.
As workplaces become more dynamic to suit the needs of a remote workforce, businesses must keep their EX personal. By truly understanding employees’ wants and needs in this new era of work, employers can build a solid workforce of engaged, ambitious, and loyal people.
When it comes to employee experience, no organization can afford to make mistakes. But larger organizations are particularly vulnerable when it comes to a miscalculation at scale. To find out what truly makes today’s workforce tick, Topia commissioned a landmark survey on employee experience — and found startling disparities between what employees want and what HR thinks they want. The data shows we’re missing the mark. Just 17% of employees rate their employee experience as excellent, and there are countless reasons why, from bad managers to tedious administrative tasks to lack of global mobility, and more.

In the United States, more than 1 in 6 part-time or full-time working employees are now assisting with the care of a family member, most often an elderly family member. According to the AARP, 15% of the American workforce is involved in caring for a loved one — that’s around 24 million people.
Most of us can imagine being in this position — saddened to see a loved one in such a diminished capacity, trying to be present and supportive of them as we garner whatever resources we have to do the right thing. But the reality is even harder. Whether a loved one is stricken with dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease, chronic illness, stroke, heart attack or any other health issue, caregiving is an extremely complicated role. When the time comes, as nationally known gerontologist Mary Winners notes,”People don’t know what they don’t know.”
When your employees assume the role of caregiver, they’re not only unaware of the myriad of choices involved, they rarely have access to the expertise or resources to safely navigate through the complexities of every decision.
Here are just a handful of the possible challenges your caregiving employees may face:
No matter the ailment a loved one is facing, caregiving isn’t easy. The countless logistical and emotional challenges your employee is facing just increase their stress levels and make decision making and balancing their life and work even that much harder. The good news is your employees don’t have to do it alone. To learn what employers can do to help, start by reading this guide.
