Who cares for the caregivers?

摘要

Consistent careers are a hallmark of a successful retirement. However, too often, workers are called away from employment to care for loved ones, both young and old. Without adequate government or employer protections, workers risk losing valuable years of prime income earning and retirement contribution potential, while being paid nothing to take care of sick or disabled family. Workers also risk losing valuable skills that could dampen their prospects for re-employment.
