Good morning,
One popular narrative about unemployed Americans turning down jobs in the last year suggests the culprit is the generous unemployment benefits they’re receiving. But a recent poll from data intelligence firm Morning Consult tells a different story: lack of child care.
Job candidates--especially women, who’ve been disproportionately affected professionally by the pandemic--can’t take your jobs if there is nowhere to leave the kids. And letting your employees work from home won’t cut it, writes Inc. columnist Suzanne Lucas. That just means asking them to do two jobs at once (their paid work and child care), which isn’t possible for many people juggling babies and toddlers. However, there are other things your business can do to help. Read Lucas’s column to learn four steps you can take to ease the burden of child care for your staff. |
