“The Backup Care benefit specifically, that’s saved Grant Thornton employees over 1,600 days of missed work since we put the program in place. We hear from our employees how much they appreciate the benefit, and the data really shows that. Of those that are enrolled in the program, we see consistent 24% utilization of the program throughout the year.”
