Financial wellness is an essential aspect of employee well-being that can significantly mitigate stress levels, boost productivity, and enhance job performance across the board. Unfortunately, many employees are struggling to make ends meet, living paycheck to paycheck and facing unexpected financial emergencies. As an employer, it's crucial to support your staff through these challenges and provide them with the resources they need to achieve financial wellness.

One way to do this is by implementing an Employee Assistance Program that provides financial support and education to your employees. The success of such a program depends on communication from HR leaders, providing targeted communication for recurrent activities like financial planning, annual enrollment in benefits, employer-provided benefits information, repayment of loans, and easy access to financial education.

Pairing retirement accounts with resources like financial wellness support can improve employee well-being, productivity, and retention.

The March edition of Employee Benefits & Wellness Excellence includes articles that focus on financial wellness to help reduce financial stress and improve overall well-being. Additionally, the magazine explores the evolving employee expectations, including the demand for fertility treatment coverage and the need for leaders to prioritize their own mental health.

Also included is an exclusive research study by the HR Research Institute, The State of Employee Financial Wellness 2023 that offers insights on workforce well-being and mental health support via employee financial wellness programs & retirement planning.
