An estimated one in three working adults has caregiving responsibilities for parents, in-laws, grandparents, a spouse, other relatives or friends. The effects of caregiving may be dramatic to both the employer and the employee. It may result in reduced productivity, loss of work time, additional supervision costs and even replacement costs to the employer for employees who quit due to caregiving responsibilities. For the family caregiver, it can negatively impact physical and emotional health.

The Family CAREGIVER Supportive Workplace Partnership is a collaborative initiative between any employer in Sheboygan County and the following:

• Aging & Disability Resource Center of Sheboygan County
• UW-Extension Sheboygan County/Family Living

Together we can provide support to you, a family caregiver, where you are: at work!
