Signs of financial stress among US workers are all around us. Nearly half of employees lack emergency savings - enough savings to cover their expenses for three months – and find it difficult to cover their expense and pay their bills. Over half of employees say they are somewhat or very stressed about their finances, and a third say they are less productive at work because of their financial stress. There are many steps that employers can take --beyond the predominant lens of wages and work -- to provide benefits that could increase financial stability. And, employers have taken note.
Please join our partner, Asset Funders Network, for a webinar to launch its newest issue brief When a job isn’t enough: Employee financial wellness and the role of philanthropy. In this webinar, we will explore promising offerings of employer benefits that better address the financial needs of their employees. This trend of expanded benefits is expected to continue to increase with 89% of employers being very or moderately likely to add tools, services, or communications with a focus on building financial well-being. Employee Financial Wellness Programs open the door for philanthropy to impact financial security in a potentially scalable way, especially among economically vulnerable workers and their families.
