For Employers
Your workforce is already caregiving.
Roughly one in five American workers is providing unpaid care to an aging or ill family member. Many are doing it in silence — missing work, leaving early, declining promotions, or quietly resigning. Tempus helps employers understand what's happening and respond with support that actually works.

What caregiving does to your workforce
Caregiving doesn't stay at home. It follows employees into the office — in the form of distraction, fatigue, unplanned absences, and the slow erosion of the focus and energy that good work requires. Most caregivers don't tell their employers what's happening. They manage in silence until they can't.
The result is a hidden productivity crisis. Turnover spikes when caregiving becomes unmanageable. Institutional knowledge walks out the door. And the employees who stay are often running on empty.
This is not a personal problem your employees need to solve on their own. It is a workforce challenge that forward-thinking employers are beginning to address — with real programs, real policies, and real results.
What Tempus offers employers
Workforce briefings

Dementia-friendly employer recognition
Tempus is developing a recognition program for employers who implement meaningful caregiver support. Be among the first in Northeast Georgia to earn this designation.
Impact reporting
Data and reporting to help you understand the scope of caregiving in your workforce and measure the impact of your support programs over time.
Why this matters now
Georgia's population is aging faster than the national average. In Northeast Georgia, the proportion of residents over 65 is growing rapidly — and with it, the number of family members stepping into caregiving roles.
The employers who act now — who build caregiver-supportive cultures before the crisis peaks — will have a meaningful competitive advantage in talent retention and workforce stability.
Tempus is building the infrastructure to support those employers. We are in our founding stage, which means early partners have the opportunity to shape what this looks like — and to be recognized as leaders in the region.
