This year’s Modern Families Index reveals a higher risk of employees looking to leave their current roles. Working parents and carers are feeling the stress, and concerns around mental health for themselves and their family are increasing, while perception of their employers’ family support is declining.
Of the 3,000 working parents and carers surveyed, women are finding themselves impacted the most on almost every level, bearing the majority of the family mental load and feeling less able to progress in their careers while working flexibly.
The risks and realities of today’s working landscape are explored in this report, alongside key retention tools to help employers plan for successful futures.
