Complimentary Financial Wellness Programs

If your workplace is typical, your employees are probably suffering from financial issues, worries, and stress.  According to the Federal Reserve, the average employee spends 28 hours a month worried about, calculating, or stressed over finances—a situation that can cost employers $5,000 a year per employee in lost productivity.  A workplace financial wellness program can help your employees and your organization benefit.

If your employees align demographically with the general population, more than half of them are experiencing financial problems right now.  And financial stress on your employees affects your bottom line, through reduced productivity, higher absenteeism, employee theft, unhealthy coping behaviors, pay dissatisfaction, low morale, and distractions leading to on-the-job accidents.  When employees are worried about personal finances, both employer and employee alike suffer the consequences.

A financial wellness program offers a positive way to proactively address your employees’ financial concerns.  Such a program can improve their sense of well-being and transform your work environment.  And comprehensive financial literacy training forms the cornerstone of a workplace wellness program.  An employee financial education initiative can increase productivity, lower stress, decrease absenteeism, and contribute to an enjoyable work environment.  Financial wellness training also contributes to ensuring your organization’s compliance with ERISA requirements.
