Carer Rights Support
Understanding carer rights and the equality act is important when hiring carers. Our Employers platform supports you to understand these rights, from creating or updating policies to understanding what is best for your company and employees.
Auditing
Ensure your organisation is compliant and carer-friendly. Our platform provides audit tools to review existing policies, highlight areas for improvement, and ensure alignment with national equality and carer support standards.
Flexible Working
Supporting carers means offering flexibility. Our guidance helps you create or adapt flexible working policies — from remote work and part-time schedules to job-sharing — so carers can thrive at work without compromising their caring responsibilities.
Communication
Clear communication is key to successfully hiring and supporting carers. We help employers develop inclusive communication strategies, create welcoming onboarding materials, and ensure carers are confident in raising needs and concerns at work.
Data Protection
Carers may share sensitive personal information. Our tools help you understand how to handle this data responsibly, ensuring GDPR compliance and promoting a safe, trusted environment for all employees.
Raising Awareness
Creating a carer-inclusive workplace starts with awareness. Our platform equips you with campaigns, internal comms templates, and storytelling tools to help your staff understand who carers are, what challenges they face, and why support matters.
Training
Upskill your managers and teams with practical, bite-sized training modules. Learn how to spot signs of someone juggling work and caring, have supportive conversations, and implement reasonable adjustments. Training boosts confidence and builds empathy across your organisation.
Carer Champions
Empower individuals in your team to drive carer inclusion. We help you identify, train and support Carer Champions — dedicated colleagues who raise visibility, signpost resources, and foster a culture where carers feel understood and valued.
DEI Strategies
Carers often go unrecognised in DEI conversations. We help you embed carer inclusion into your Diversity, Equity and Inclusion strategy — ensuring carers are visible, supported, and included in decision-making, leadership pathways, and workplace equity reviews.
Measuring Impact
Know what’s working and what needs more attention. Our platform supports you in tracking your carer-friendly initiatives — from engagement metrics to policy uptake and feedback loops. Use this data to report progress and set goals that truly make a difference.
Hidden Carers
“Hidden carers” quietly balance work with caring for a family member, friend or neighbour. We help you uncover and support them through targeted resources, language tips, and low-barrier engagement strategies.
Normalising Carers
Talking about caring should be as routine as discussing childcare or health needs. We support you in making carer conversations part of everyday workplace culture — through inclusive messaging, carer visibility campaigns, and leadership-led modelling.
Data and Trends
Understand the scale and scope of caring responsibilities in the UK and within your own organisation. We provide up-to-date data, workforce benchmarks, and carer insight reports so you can see how your support strategies measure up — and where to go next.
Disclosure
Carers may hesitate to share their situation due to fear of stigma, job insecurity, or simply not recognising their role. Our platform provides guidance on fostering safe disclosure, helping you build a culture where employees feel confident and supported in speaking up.
Conversation
The first step to support is a simple conversation. We offer templates, prompts and manager guides to help you ask the right questions with empathy and clarity. Learn how to actively listen, signpost help, and follow up in meaningful ways.
