EMPLOYERS
AND HUMAN RESOURCE PROFESSIONALS
What you don't know about child care can cost you plenty. Unscheduled absences cost Canadian companies an average of $3,350 per year, per employee.
Nearly a quarter of unscheduled absences are the result of child care breakdown. More than 30% of employed parents report that they've considered leaving their employers due to child care issues. There are many things you can do to address these issues in your workplace. Most are more affordable than you might think.
To find out more, contact our Executive Director at 905-646-7311, ext. 301 or click on the envelope to send an email .

In addition to our handy Child Care Choices registry that

spaces close to home or your workplace, the ECCDC offers workplace
wellness seminars, lunch hour workshops and networking meetings
for parents, and consulting services for employers considering on-site
child care as an employee benefit.
Additionally, the ECCDC offers numerous marketing

As an independent charitable organization devoted
to helping individuals and organizations achieve their child care
goals, all of the proceeds from our services to employers help make
new learning equipment, toys and books available in our Resource
Library, and expand or make more affordable the range of services
and supports we offer child care providers in our community.
