Description

For the procurement of a 12-month membership of national online resources to support working carers, employers and line managers, in the NHS for a period of 12 months from 09 June 2021 - 08 June 2022. As a minimum, the resources should: •Offer advice and practical support to: -Employers on developing carer friendly policies, practices and a culture which attracts carers to, and supports them in the workplace. Offering the opportunity to participate in a benchmarking and/or accreditation scheme would be ideal but is not essential. -Line managers on identifying working carers and initiating compassionate and constructive conversations with employees. -Working carers on effectively balancing work and caring responsibilities. • Be written in a way that enables the resources to be shared with patients if needed and be available in accessible formats. • Recognise and align to the ethos, values and content of the Working Carers Passport UK scheme. The supplier will not collate or share any confidential, sensitive or personal information, particularly that which may identify an individual.
