In Kara Miller’s recent column, she discussed the challenges faced by mothers in the workforce and the importance of addressing these issues for employers. According to the US Chamber of Commerce, there are currently only 71 workers for every 100 open jobs in the United States, which means that employers have a lot to lose by not addressing issues like the wage gap and child care responsibilities.
To stay competitive and attract top talent, employers must invest in career growth and retention strategies. This includes supporting flexibility and benefits like paid leave and child-care assistance, as well as cultivating an inclusive culture that values caregivers. By learning from the lessons that mothers are teaching us, we can create a more supportive work environment for all employees and set up future generations for success.
Miriam Rubin, co-founder of Listen to Your Mothers, emphasizes the importance of drawing on these lessons to build a better future. As she says, “Employers have a lot to gain by investing in their employees and creating a more supportive work environment.” By taking inspiration from mothers and other caregivers, we can rethink our workplaces so that both employees and employers can thrive.
