Description

In today’s fast-paced world with our hybrid working environment, managing work and family can be stressful and challenging. It is particularly busy and stressful as the long school holidays come to an end and the preparation for back to school and care begins.

The beginning of the school year is also the perfect time for working parents and carers to “get organised” at home and at work. By working on a family plan together, creating routines and workable schedules, employees with caring responsibilities will have the best chance of getting everyone on the same page and working together to make their work-study-family life more organised and less stressful for the whole family!

Resourcing employees reduces parental stress so they can succeed at home and be more focussed and productive at work. Workplace programs that support working parents and their families to thrive, nurture a family-friendly workplace culture.

Designed for working parents and carers raising children aged toddler to teenager.
