Studies show that U.S. businesses lose billions of dollars in productivity for employees with care giving responsibilities.

But now one local hospice group is offering a new campaign to help reduce that financial loss in the area.

Hospice of South Georgia is partnering with a national workplace-outreach initiative to educate employers about care giving issues.

Many times, providing care for a dying loved one can limit productivity at work.

But through this partnership, hospice officials hope to offer support to area employers and improve awareness within the workplace.
