Description 22.4 million households in the U.S. provide care for an older or disabled person. One-third to one-half of these people also have full-time jobs. 12% o f this group must give up their jobs to become full-time caregivers. Fortunately the enormous cost of caregiving for both the employed caregiver and the employer can be offset by corporate eldercare programs and services. A survey o f 21 of the largest corporations in Salt Lake County revealed an emerging awareness of this problem as well as some creative and effective solutions to help employed caregivers find balance in their lives.
