Abstract: The millions of caregivers in France constitute a real asset, which our country should recognize in order to better preserve it. An embodiment of intergenerational solidarity, caregivers have a key role to play in helping people to age well. Through the efforts they deploy with seniors in difficulty, they facilitate, or even make possible maintaining in their homes people who are gradually losing their autonomy, often delaying the onset of dependency. Among these millions of caregivers, many of them have to reconcile their role of helping a person experiencing loss of autonomy with their own professional responsibilities. Public authorities, health and medico-social professionals, and charitable associations all have an essential role to play in helping caregivers who also work. But business, too, should take responsibility for supporting this growing phenomenon. JEL classification: I18, J14, J22.
