Uncovering the workplace divide that you are unaware of that is impacting staff retention, mental health and your bottom line.
Many employers do not understand there is a real workplace divide that exists and this hidden issue has a real impact and cost to your business including:
THESE ALL IMPACT YOUR BOTTOM LINE
Did you know that approximately 57% of women employees had children? Which means 30-40% of your employees on average are childfree, yet these employees do not get the same privileges (legal or otherwise) that your staff with children get. This can cause a lot of conflict resulting in people leaving, often without telling you the real reason.
Further to this the Australian Bureau of Statistics predicts that sometime in the next decade, the number of couples without children will overtake the number of couples with children. This is a real issue in workplaces across the globe and not one which should be ignored
You can change this in your workplace.
Both women and men at work need to feel support, given options, flexible work conditions and not face bullying or unfair work practices, regardless of their life choices. Many current policies are geared towards parenthood and supporting this one life choice. Very few include relevant options for people without children. This is a bias assumption that costs employers.

It is a presentation and workshop that addresses hidden issues in the workplace that you are unlikely unaware of. These issues should be addressed by your Human Resources team however the policies are impacted by the C suite and senior managers within the business.
