Working Carers Guide in Wales: A guide for carers balancing paid work and caring responsibilities

CarersWale

One in seven people who work in Wales also provide unpaid care for family or friends. Working carers are the group most likely to miss out on information and advice and are the least likely to have any formal support at home. Without support, working carers can struggle inside and outside the workplace.

This guide is designed to help working carers identify themselves as carers and raise awareness of their legal rights for support in the community and the workplace. If you are an employer, this guide can help you to understand ways to offer support for working carers.
