A healthy, stress-free workforce drives productivity, reduces sick leave, and lowers staff turnover. However, financial stress remains a significant challenge as findings from our 2024 Global Benefit Attitudes Survey shows:
- Three in 10 workers say they are worse off than a year ago and have financial issues negatively impacting their lives
- Three in four employees report they are not saving enough for retirement and are not on track for retirement
- Financially stressed employees are more likely to suffer sleepless nights, miss deadlines, experience workplace conflicts, or seek new employment
The workplace is a natural environment for financial wellness initiatives, providing employees with the support they need as they earn.
A robust financial wellness programme helps create a mutually beneficial ecosystem of education, engagement, motivation, and financial security.
