Leveraging the Hidden Workforce of the Sandwich Generation

Nov 30, 2024

Joe Fuller discusses his new research “Hidden Workers: The Case for Caregivers.” Joe is a Harvard Business School professor and co-host of the podcast Managing the Future of Work. With roughly 100 million Americans in "the sandwich generation" functioning as a caregiver, issues like affordable childcare, paid leave and eldercare are on the minds of many Americans, especially ahead of the 2024 U.S. presidential election. The report argues that by improving hiring practices, employers can tap into the deep talent pool of caregivers who are eager to get back into the workforce.

Host, Kevin Craine
