With 63 million households having at least one child under 18 living in the house, that means that at least 16% of the total workforce is comprised of working parents. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Engaging and retaining this huge part of\u00a0the\u00a0workforce is key\u00a0\u2013 especially considering the labor challenges we\u2019ve been facing\u00a0over the past year and a half.\u00a0Not only\u00a0that, but\u00a0recruiting and hiring working parents can bring a diverse skill set to your team and help show other employees you\u2019re invested in\u00a0the culture at work.\u00a0In order to prioritize retention among this crucial group, it\u2019s important to know:<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">What\u00a0do\u00a0working\u00a0parents need from their managers?<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Flexibility.<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0Though this is in high demand for\u00a0just about every job seeker,\u00a0working parents in particular need some element of flexibility in their schedule.\u00a0This can\u00a0be accomplished in\u00a0a number of\u00a0ways, such as offering a guaranteed number of days off or by implementing shift-swapping software.\u00a0However\u00a0you choose to integrate flexibility into your scheduling is beneficial not just for working parents, but for your entire team.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Understanding.\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Anyone who has children or knows someone with them\u00a0realizes the level of understanding and patience that goes into being a parent. The same can be said for businesses that employ working parents \u2013 understanding and patience is important for this relationship to work.\u00a0There can be unexpected issues that arise when you have children, meaning that sometimes employed parents may need to leave work or call-off to address\u00a0what\u2019s going on at home. While this\u00a0situation\u00a0isn\u2019t always\u00a0practical, showing understanding (and not to\u00a0mention,\u00a0flexibility) can\u00a0make work less stressful for parents and retain them on your team.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Consider a staffing partner to better provide for parents<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">One option\u00a0businesses\u00a0have that can help support working parents is partnering with a staffing company.
