LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 21, 2024--
Helpr, the leading global provider of employer-subsidized family care via an all-in-one app, now offers services in over 150 countries with enhanced features for a seamless user experience. Helpr enables employees to get quality care for their children, partners, parents, pets, and even themselves. Employees have a choice of Helpr’s vetted high-quality care providers or they can opt to use Helpr’s patented My Choice technology that allows employees to use care providers from their personal network – family members, friends, neighbors – care providers they feel are the best choice for their family care needs.
Delivered as an employment benefit, Helpr enables employees to easily fill gaps in care when unexpected business trips, school closures, illnesses, or absences of regular care providers arise. For employers, this means a reduction in lost workdays, greater employee retention and productivity, and happy employees. On average, Helpr’s corporate customers see a 3X return on saved workdays against their investment and a 7.35X return for retention of employees.
Founders Kasey Edwards and Becka Klauber launched Helpr in 2016 to provide practical, reliable solutions to bridge family care gaps. Helpr has partnered with leading brands around the globe such as Skanska, TrueCar, Forvis, PMI Worldwide, Neurocrine, and other enterprise businesses to provide family care solutions to employees so they can thrive at home and on the job.
“Backup care has been around for ages but the benefit went mostly to a limited group of workers – high-earning desk employees. At Helpr we make care accessible to all employees, whether they're in a remote location, across the globe, behind a desk, or working in the field,” says Helpr CEO Kasey Edwards. “By leveraging our patented technology where families can bring their own trusted care providers to the app for care subsidy for work in their home, we’ve created a tool that’s a cost saver to families and employers alike. We’re proud to underscore the importance of family network care.”
Helpr has expanded its services and featuresavailable via its all-in-one app including:
