Critical Issues Forum - Hired, Healthy & Happy: Attracting and Retaining Great Talent
Attracting and retaining talent is top of mind for employers of all sizes and industries in today?s tight labor market. Providing access to unique services and creating policies that support their workers leads to less turnover and a greater pool of job candidates. This panel discussion will focus on specific ways that employers are supporting those with caregiving responsibilities including wellness, mental health resources, childcare, and paid family and medical leave (including the proposed statewide paid family medical leave proposal), as well as tools in the market to help with implementation of best practices.
