Here’s an extract from the radio:
Gerald Tan:
How do control view a person who uses a lot of parental advantages or takes a protracted maternity or paternity keep? Did it affect their job progression?
Derrick Teo:
Also, I guess most corporate managers understand that this is a part of the deal when we employ someone. I suppose that’s true.
That a man does transition into a distinct phase of life naturally as they continue to work for the company. They will go through additional stages of life, including those with older kids and other commitments.
I would say most firms worth their salt, they would already be preparing, or they now had prepared, perhaps even aspects like work makeover, about how they are able to help parents or caregivers.
They can help them through this approach while keeping up their work-related KPIs.
Tiffany Ang:
When I spoke with a supervisor, she said it was difficult for her because her children are older, but she suddenly realized that her crew was full of families and young children.
She was understanding that everyone was only taking their time off, but ultimately she had to handle the workload because everyone was simply taking their care left. I mean, that’s a pretty true situation, right?
Derrick:
Obviously, and I completely concur with you, and I’ve seen this happen in my customers ‘ businesses as well, where there are many parallel people living in the same age group and having children of the same age group.
