3. What Effect Does Child Care Have on Working Parents?
Relationship Between Child Care and Productivity
Work-Life Researcher Cindy Carillo observes: “The
average American working parent misses nine days
of work per year. As their children move through
daycare and into elementary school, the number of
days increases to thirteen.”4
AT&T found that 57 percent of female staff and 33
percent of male staff with children under age six lost
time from work in the preceding month because of
child care problems, including illness.7
29 percent of employed parents experience child
care breakdowns, which are associated with
absenteeism, tardiness, and reduced concentration at
work.5
63 percent of employees surveyed in 2000 by the
American Business Collaboration reported
improved productivity associated with quality
dependent care.6
45 percent of working parents miss at least one day of
work every six months because of a breakdown in child
care. The average was 4.3 days missed in a six-month
timeframe.8
65 percent of parents are late to work or leave work
early because of child care issues – an average of 7.5
times in a six-month time frame.9
