The childcare crisis in the U.S. is more than a family issue; it’s an economic one. With limited access to quality, affordable childcare, millions of parents, especially women, are forced to reduce work hours or miss work altogether. This not only impacts their career advancement and earnings but also has a ripple effect on productivity, business operations, and overall economic growth. New research from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and KPMG US now quantifies the scope of this issue, revealing that between 1.2 and 1.5 million workers, predominantly women (nearly 90%), are impacted monthly by childcare challenges. These disruptions cost millions of work hours each year, hurting families, businesses, and the economy. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eyDHTUAF Addressing this crisis is vital not just for gender equity, but for ensuring a stronger, more resilient workforce and future economic growth. It’s time we prioritize solutions that support parents in balancing their work and family lives. #ChildcareCrisis #Workforce #EconomicGrowth #Equity
