Employee Survey Combining Work And Care - Gloucester City Council

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), Gloucester City Council is conducting this survey following the launch of the Carers Policy, so we can identify the impact of caring on our employees.

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.

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. Where equalities monitoring is completed, we only report this as a whole organisation and not in service areas or teams. So we are unable to identify any individuals from this data.

The survey will close on Friday 10 March.

Thank you for your time, we value your participation in this important survey which will help us to help you.
