Family-Forward Employer Update
Investing in the Utah Workforce
Utah employers are leaving a significant workforce investment on the table. A new state tax credit stacked with an enhanced federal credit allows Utah businesses to recover up to 88% of what they spend on employee child care benefits. Most employers have never heard of it.
The Family-Forward Employer Update brings together Utah business owners, HR professionals, and community leaders to learn about this opportunity, hear directly from employers and child care providers who are putting it to work, and connect with others building family-forward workplaces across the state.
