OEM Fabricators, Inc., a Wisconsin based manufacturer with three locations and a Certified Family Friendly Workplace, has been searching for a solution to increasing dependent care costs for their Team Members.
“We’ve seen dependent care become an increasing issue for our Team Members, both for children and elderly parents,” said Abby Klatt, OEM’s Director of Human Resources. “We customize work schedules based on individual needs, and offer a weekend shift for those providing care through the week. However, even with this schedule flexibility, the struggle with availability and costs remains.”
