Financial Education & Training for Employees
One of your top performing employees has been distracted lately. You notice she's spending more time talking on her cell phone and she seems to be carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders.
Did you know these are just some of the tell-tale signs that a worker is struggling with financial worries?
When employees are distracted by financial troubles it diminishes their productivity, brings unnecessary stress into the workplace and puts a wet blanket on company morale.
Conversely, when you help your employees achieve a state of true financial wellness, you empower them. By providing employee financial education, you help workers become confident and focused, and allow them to experience a sense of security. A company that offers employee financial education is truly making an investment in the business.
The following facts are worth considering:
- Up to 50% of employees admit to wasting 21 hours per month while on the job dealing with personal money matters.
- Employees regard financial stress as their number one concern, five times greater than personal health.
- Two-thirds say they have trouble paying their bills on time and worry about money.
- 90% of the nearly 128 million workers in the U.S. have difficulty managing their money and are not consistently saving for retirement.

When an organization begins to understand the profound difference offering financial literacy training can make not only in the lives of their employees, but in their bottom line, they understand that this investment pays for itself many times over.
