It is well understood in Grayson’s book that the programmatic advice promised by its title stands or falls on another question being satisfactorily answered: why be a great employer for working carers? This is duly addressed right at the beginning. The book is divided into three sections: ‘Why care for carers?’, which discusses current economic and demographic trends, and makes the business case for supporting working carers; ‘Seven steps to being a good employer for working carers’, which is the central, and most concrete, programmatic section, and the one most directly addressed to employers; and ‘Building a movement’, which presents further strategies for building networks that adequately support carers in employment, and suggests that creating a society that recognises, values and facilitates the work of caring alongside (and outside) paid employment is the best and most sustainable way of ensuring that carers are supported.
