Pillar 4: Survivorship

Thanks to earlier detection and improved treatments, more than half of all cancer survivors will continue to work or return to work. Further, if not facing a diagnosis themselves, many employees will find themselves caring for someone with cancer. Employers with health benefits and a work environment that address their needs are better prepared to mitigate the effects of this devastating disease.

Key Requirements

  • Sustain a workplace culture that recognizes the needs of employees who are cancer survivors themselves or who are family members/caregivers of cancer survivors.
