We are committed to ensuring that carers are supported to balance work and caring responsibilities and that guidance around policies which benefit unpaid carers in the workplace is readily available to employers and employees.

Gov.uk guidance is already available covering flexible working, time off for family and dependents and unpaid carer’s leave. This will be of particular benefit to unpaid carers in employment and those who employ them.
