Employers are increasingly aware of the need for 'family-friendly' policy and practice in order to support workers who have caring responsibilities for older adults. This study investigated how working carers and managers in public sector organisations employing large numbers of women (a Social Services Department and a NHS Trust) combined these roles and responsibilities. Both organisations had a variety of family-friendly policies and were in the process of developing and implementing others.
