Why these companies win at financial wellness

And a new affordable solution so you and your company can too.

Friends,

How would you rate your financial happiness?

If you're rating it medium to low, it's likely impacting your whole life - including your work life.

If you and your colleagues are bringing financial stress to work, it is causing increased distractions, lost productivity, waning engagement and diminished morale. If it hasn’t hit the bottom line- and your careers yet, it is just a matter of time.

Alyssa Place, Editor in Chief at Employee Benefit News makes the case for why financial wellness benefits should be a company's biggest investment in this piece.

On the bright side: a lot of companies are already on board and doing a great job supporting financial wellness for their teams.

• Virgin & PayPal - Recognize that financial well-being extends beyond the paycheck and is not a one-size-fits-all concept

• Aflac - Uses a multipronged approach when it comes to employee wellness and destigmatizes conversations around mental wellness and finances

• Delta - Provides financial literacy programs as an employee benefit because employees who are worried about money can’t show up as their best selves

• Chipotle - Targets Gen Z with new financial wellness benefits to appeal to the demographic’s economic insecurity and notable financial challenges

Want your company to win too?

Recently we’ve seen an uptick in inquiries from small- to medium-sized businesses who are looking for an affordable, compelling and effective way to address financial stress with their teams.

Which is why we’re excited to announce our newest service: Financial Wellness Office Hours.

Financial Wellness Office Hours will enable your teams to participate in virtual group Q&A sessions to have their money-related questions answered in real-time. They can ask follow ups and get perspective from their peers. The content is audience driven, and specific to what employees have on their minds. And since it’s virtual, it’s cost effective.

Virtual office hours, real savings

With Financial Wellness Office Hours, your teams and/or clients will discover strategies to manage their most pressing financial challenges and in turn lead happier, healthier and less stressful lives. And that means increased productivity and engagement for your organization (not to mention a benefits boost!).

With Financial Wellness Office Hours, you’ll receive:

• 40-minute live group virtual Q&A sessions

• Focus on empathetic conversations and realistic strategies – not lectures

• Questions submitted and approved by the organization in advance

• Option to have participants share their perspective on questions by peers

• Password protected recordings available up to 7 days after the live sessions

• Purchase as a weekly or monthly series

• Discounts available based on the number of sessions booked - PLUS, we’re having a Spring Sale on the introductory package (40% OFF!)
