Why Klean Benefits Belongs in Every Employee Benefits Package
Life is full of moments that are hard to prepare for. Klean Benefits is a practical, human benefit that gives working families one less thing to worry about — so they can focus on what matters most.
The Need Isn't Abstract. It's Measurable.
Behind every reason on this page is a real, fact-checked figure. These are the numbers that show why a practical benefit like Klean Benefits matters to working families.
The most of any US state — more than double second-place Indiana (~95). Illinois has shattered its own record and is approaching the all-time US single-year mark, all within one-fifth of Texas's land area.
Roughly 1 in 4 adults (AARP / National Alliance for Caregiving, 2025). Caregivers spend an average of 27 hours a week providing care, and 70% of working-age caregivers also hold paid jobs.
Over an hour a week — nearly three full days a year (American Time Use Survey). Women average about 87 hours a year on laundry.
The help with daily living — like laundry — that people need while recovering from surgery or illness is typically not covered.
Figures are fact-checked and presented as credible evidence of the need — not as a promise of specific outcomes.
When a crisis hits, laundry is the last thing on anyone's mind.
When a natural disaster strikes — a flood, a tornado, a displacement — families are focused on safety, shelter, and survival. No one is thinking about washing their clothes. Yet clean clothes are essential to getting back to work, to dignity, and to recovery. Klean Benefits makes sure that's one less thing to worry about.
Most insurance doesn't cover 'custodial care.'
If you're having a hip or knee replacement, your insurance may cover the surgery and the hospital stay — but not the everyday tasks that recovery makes impossible. 'Custodial care' — the help with daily living like laundry — is typically not covered. So while you're recovering and can't bend, lift, or stand, you'd have to pay someone to wash your clothes. Klean Benefits fills that gap.
Pregnancy and new parenthood are physically demanding.
For pregnant women, especially in the later months, carrying laundry, bending, and lifting can be difficult or even unsafe. After childbirth, recovery and caring for a newborn leave little time or energy for household chores. Klean Benefits offers practical relief during one of life's most physically demanding seasons.
Caregivers carry a heavy load.
Millions of workers care for children, aging parents, or ill family members. When you're spending your energy caring for someone else, your own household tasks — like laundry — pile up. Klean Benefits gives caregivers one less burden so they can focus on the people who need them.
Clean clothes are about dignity, readiness, and work.
Showing up to work in clean, professional clothing matters — for confidence, for respect, and for the job itself. When life gets hard, Klean Benefits helps working families stay prepared for the moments that matter.
