Caregiving for an adult loved one can be stressful.
Caregiving while holding down a job only increases that level of stress.
Two-thirds (67 percent) of family caregivers have difficulty balancing their jobs with caregiving duties.
Similarly, 72 percent report using telework as an option and 84 percent rate it highly.
Among those with access to unpaid family leave, nearly 60 percent opted to take it.
Are caregiver benefits on the rise?
Perhaps not fast enough, but the combined surveys show that progress is underway.
