Kids, Cars, and Commutes: FEBC Offers a Work Life Services Benefit for Simpler Work-Life Balance

SAN RAMON, Calif., March 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Does anybody like commuting? It's a source of stress for many Americans who are facing longer commutes and the accompanying consequences. Some places in the U.S., like New York, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C., are notorious for their high concentration of "mega-commuters" who have very long journeys to and from work. Commuting when you have kids can make things even more complicated, too, especially when it comes to childcare. Financial Education Benefits Center (FEBC), a membership benefits company, offers a work life services benefit to help counsel and assist members with caring for their family and living a balanced lifestyle.

"Even a commute to a job you like can become a reason you get stressed," said Jennifer Martinez, Manager at FEBC. "If you add in kids, things can get hectic. The work life services benefit is a tool intended for FEBC members to bring some order to the chaos."

A long-distance commute increases the chance that the trip could last longer because each additional mile opens up the possibility of a slowdown. Fitting your child's care, or their activities, into your work and commute schedule can be hard when your commute is long or unpredictable. Having a plan in place, or resources to consult, might help ease the stress and make the daily routine run smoother.

The work life services benefit is available to members of multiple plan levels. Users of this benefit can call a number for confidential advice and assistance on coordinating some of the most stressful parts of family life like childcare and school selection. For example, commuters who need to find childcare for their kids can call up the work life services line and ask for help for choosing the optimal location.

This benefit also includes a resource-rich website with content on successfully managing every aspect of life. It includes a multitude of articles, videos, and free webinars on topics including navigating a career, pregnancy and childbirth, managing stress and change, as well as fitness and nutrition.

"Creating that sustainable work-life balance is a struggle so many working parents have. Not just having enough time for your kids, but also enough time for yourself," said Martinez. "FEBC considers wellness a whole-person idea, and our wellness benefits are geared to a holistic type of care."
