Should a childcare benefit be included in your total rewards? Childcare is so extremely costly but some
Companies offer discounts and assistance. However, for those who don’t have children - what could be offered along side this so there are inclusive benefits for all?

What about a broader dependent care umbrella? Lots of people are and more will be helping care for adults in their lives. Benefit could be used to defray some of thr cost of assisted living, adult daycare, in home care, overnight nurses, etc.

Definitely a benefit that needs to be talked about more

I think childcare benefits are a great thing to offer. I appreciate the consideration of inclusivity, but I don’t think every benefit has to be equally used.

Agree - I almost wish orgs shared which benefits were used the most. I would love if you could create your own benefits package.

I’d appreciate childcare support if it’s offered, but I don’t think companies should be expected to solve every personal challenge under the umbrella of benefits.

I'd love it if it was. My monthly daycare payments are almost the same as our mortgage payments. It's insane. For the people without kids, I'd say pet insurance or something like that would be a good alternative option. Not quite the same, but still a nice perk. And another one I wish I had having just paid an insane amount to have my German shepherd's torn ACL fixed 😭

There is the child and dependent care credit, some benefit on the tax side. Good shout about an inclusive benefit. So many benefits that most can’t even use. I’d say some kind of stipend that allows everyone to set their own priority.
