This is one of the most significant findings published by a study that also highlights that many of them—specifically 32%—have to leave their children at a daycare center before the baby reaches six months of age.
The results of this survey show that it is not standard practice among companies to introduce tools for employees that help them reconcile their work, family, and personal lives. However, 92% of the families surveyed state that both parents work, making work-life balance measures necessary.
Furthermore, the data in this report not only reveal that children are starting daycare at increasingly younger ages, but also that in recent years the amount of time children spend there has been increasing. In 66% of cases, they spend an average of between 5 and 8 hours a day there, while in 16% of cases they spend more than 8 hours.
Therefore, it is necessary to instill in companies the philosophy that investing in and supporting employees helps improve their well-being and, consequently, build their loyalty to the organization’s projects—which ultimately translates into greater productivity.
