Employer Survey: Supporting Unpaid Carers in the Workplace

We Care You Care is a communication and campaigns platform designed to raise awareness of unpaid care and direct South Tees carers and professionals to the range of local support and provision. We are passionate about creating carer friendly communities to reduce adverse impacts caring roles can have on individuals.

We are conducting this survey to understand how employers currently support unpaid carers in the workplace and what measures they are willing to consider to better accommodate working carers. Your responses will help shape future policies and resources to support both employers and employees. The survey should take no more than 5 minutes to complete.
