Corporate Gerontologists often work in the private sector handling the business and financial aspects of Gerontology. One possible job title in this field is Corporate Financial Gerontologist. Corporate Gerontologists assist employers and their employees cope with how the role of a caregiver increasingly impacts the workplace.
Often, the caregiver role creates time and financial pressures for employees and leads to missed days, overuse of sick time, stress related illness and loss of upward mobility due to the constraints of being a caregiver. Corporate gerontology services can help employers ease this burden by providing their employees with on-site training in caregiver issues and even offering long-term care insurance and a voluntary benefit.
