A local company has set a standard within the community by establishing a child care facility on its premises, which enrolls children from six weeks of age to school age
The facility has a sick care area where children with noninfectious illnesses can come to so their parents do not have to call in sick. The company is considering establishing an adult day care center in addition to its child care facilities. What could be a reason for this company's innovations?
1. The company wants to be recognized for its family-friendly policies.
2. The company wants to be a family-friendly employer.
3. The company is aware of the correlation between family influences on employee performance and that addressing these concerns helps both the employee and company.
4. The company realizes that it is important to have healthy children and healthy older adults in society.
Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. There is an increasing awareness among some companies about the influence of family on job performance. Most family responsibilities fall on women, who will take sick time or vacation time to address family needs, and this can ultimately impact job performance. Instituting child care services, and possibly elder care services, on its premises helps to address this concern and helps its employees decrease the stressors these employees can face. Being recognized for family-friendly policies does not necessarily address employee health. Being a family-friendly employer does not address or impact employee health. Recognizing the importance of healthy children and older adults does not address employee job productivity.
