EMPLOYEE FINANCIAL WELLNESS PROGRAMS
Helping your employees live happier, healthier, more fulfilled lives.... one budget at a time.
Your Employees Are Stressed About Money...
It's true...money concerns distract people from doing their best quality work.
And while we are all responsible for our bank accounts, employers have the opportunity and responsibility to support and encourage financial literacy among its employees.
A study by the FINRA Investor Education Foundation discovered that financial literacy skills have significantly declined since the Great Recession, especially for 18 to 34-year-olds.
PwC investigated the biggest causes for stress at work and found that more employees cite financial matters than any other life stressor combined including their job, relationships and health concerns (because money actually affects all three)!
The study also found that nearly half of employees spend more than three hours each week distracted by their personal finances.
Does it work? Who else is doing it?
Recognizing that financial well-being is integral to overall happiness and job satisfaction, forward-thinking organizations are investing in resources and support to empower their employees to take control of their finances.
