EMPLOYEE SURVEY
COMBINING WORK AND CARE
Introduction
Caring for an ill, older or disabled family member, partner or friend will have an impact on most of us at some point in our lives. Already 1 in 7 people in the UK workforce have caring responsibilities and this ratio is set to increase as people live longer and retire later. As a member of Employers for Carers (www.employersforcarers.org), East Riding of Yorkshire Council is conducting a survey to identify the impact of caring on our employees.
Carers provide unpaid care by looking after an ill, older or disabled family member, friend or partner. It could be a few hours a week or round the clock, in your own home or someone else's home.
We welcome your response if you are combining paid work with caring for, or looking after an ill, frail or disabled relative, partner or friend or if you line-manage someone with caring responsibilities.
The purpose of the survey is to understand the challenges of juggling work and care and help us develop better workplace support for working carers.
This is a short survey that can be completed in just a few minutes.
The survey is anonymous and all information will be treated in absolute confidence.
The survey will close on 06/12/2021.
Thank you for your time, we value your participation in this important survey which will help us to help you.
