Less absence. Less turnover. Employees who feel better in themselves.
What happens at home sometimes spills over into work.
- An employee who hasn’t slept properly for weeks.
- A parent who is worried about a child.
- A colleague combining caring for a loved one with a busy job.
- Someone heading for burnout.
- Or an employee with so many hormonal complaints that there’s hardly any energy left.
It may start outside work. But the effects can show up at work.
Less energy. Less focus. Less enjoyment at work. More frequent absence. And sometimes, in the end, long-term sick leave or leaving altogether.
With FamlyCare, you give employees easy access to professional support with the challenges that affect their wellbeing and ability to work.
Not once someone drops out. Before that.
You have an absence policy. But what happens before the sick call?
Many organisations have everything in place as soon as an employee drops out.
- The company doctor.
- The occupational health service (arbodienst).
- Absence meetings.
- Reintegration.
- A plan of action.
But by then, someone is already ill.
While the signs often start much earlier.
Stress that keeps building. Sleeping badly. Caring for a loved one. Problems at home. Hormonal changes. Money worries. Or a work-life balance that has been under pressure for months.
As an employer, you can’t solve every problem.
But you can make sure your employee isn’t left carrying it alone.
Sound familiar?
Our absence is too high, but we can’t get enough grip on the causes.
We want to do more on prevention instead of only acting once someone is ill.
HR is getting more and more personal requests for help.
Our managers want to help, but they aren’t coaches, psychologists or family experts.
We invest a lot in attracting new people, but above all we want to keep the people we have.
We have wellbeing initiatives, but employees can’t always find the right support.
We want to make sustainable employability more concrete than a wellbeing week, a fruit basket or a gym membership.
We want to be an attractive employer in a way that really benefits employees.
We want to support all employees, not just those who have already dropped out.
Then it’s worth getting to know FamlyCare.
Discover what FamlyCare can do for you
Absence isn’t only caused by what happens at work.
As an employer, you can tackle workload, improve processes, invest in development and create a pleasant working environment.
But employees also have a life outside work. And what happens there can affect how someone feels and functions.
An employee who lies awake at night because a child is struggling doesn’t suddenly start the next working day well rested.
A carer doesn’t leave their worries behind when work begins.
And someone who is becoming mentally overloaded doesn’t always wait until HR notices that things aren’t going well.
That’s why FamlyCare looks beyond the workplace.
One place for the questions that make everyday life complicated.
Through FamlyCare, employees get access to professional support across different areas of life.
Mental health
Support with stress, mental strain, overthinking, setting boundaries and other personal challenges.
Work & balance
Support with workload, setting boundaries, energy, personal development and combining work and private life.
Women’s health
Support with topics such as hormonal changes, pregnancy, menstruation and the menopause.
Health & lifestyle
Support with sleep, exercise, nutrition and building healthier habits, among other things.
Baby, child & family
For questions about children, parenthood, parenting and situations at home that take a lot of attention or energy.
One platform. Different professionals. One easy entry point for your employees.
You don’t have to turn HR into a care provider.
When an employee gets stuck, the question regularly ends up with HR or a manager.
- But what do you do when someone is completely overwhelmed at home?
- Where do you refer an employee with menopause symptoms?
- Who can support the colleague who combines a busy job with intensive caring for a loved one?
- And how much time does HR spend working out, for every situation all over again, what support is available?
HR doesn’t need to have an answer for everything.
With FamlyCare, you give employees a place where they can find the right support themselves and get in touch with a professional.
Easy to access and confidential.
From reacting to absence to supporting sooner.
Without FamlyCare
- An employee runs into something.
- Tries to solve it alone first.
- The situation continues or gets bigger.
- Energy, concentration and enjoyment at work may decline.
- HR or the manager notices something is going on.
- Support is sought.
- Or the employee calls in sick.
With FamlyCare
- An employee runs into something.
- Knows where support is available.
- Can look for help independently and easily.
- Gets access to the right professional support.
- The problem gets attention sooner.
That’s the shift we want to make with FamlyCare.
From only acting when things go wrong to supporting people before it gets that far.
What does FamlyCare bring your organisation?
Helping to prevent and reduce absence
By making support available sooner, you help stop problems from growing unnecessarily and possibly contributing to absence.
Keeping your employees
Being a good employer goes beyond salary and terms of employment. You show employees that there’s attention for the person behind the employee.
Strengthening sustainable employability
Help employees stay healthy, motivated and able to work through the different stages of their working and personal lives.
Supporting happiness at work
When employees feel better in themselves, it also affects how they experience their work and working environment.
Taking the load off HR and managers
Not every personal request for help has to be solved by HR or a manager. Employees get direct access to the right support themselves.
Making good employership concrete
Not just saying that wellbeing matters, but actually offering employees something they can use.
A fruit basket is fine. But it won’t solve everything.
- A workshop on stress.
- A webinar on the menopause.
- A wellbeing week.
- A gym membership.
- A mindfulness app.
- A fruit basket on Tuesdays.
They can all contribute something.
But not all employees need the same thing at the same time.
One has questions about a child who is struggling at home. Another lies awake over caring for a loved one. A colleague is battling stress. And someone else again needs support with hormonal changes or the balance between work and private life.
That’s why FamlyCare brings different kinds of support together in one place.
So employees can choose for themselves which support fits their situation at that moment.
This is how FamlyCare works.
