Benefits of the programme
Employees
The programme aims to help employees through:
- increasing their financial knowledge and awareness of financial issues - to better understand and manage their finances, be more financially capable consumers and help them choose financial products;
- enabling them to make better choices about their finances;
- enabling them to seek help effectively, knowing when and where to go for financial help;
- improved budgeting, avoiding adverse financial shocks; and
- helping them to make ends meet, keep track of their finances and plan ahead, through their greater understanding of future financial requirements.
Employers
Improving financial capability of employees has potential benefits for you as employers too, by:
- reducing staff absences – removing stress caused by financial worry;
- avoiding staff attrition – employees will appreciate the true extent of their employee benefits, including the provision of seminars;
- expanding your Corporate Social Responsibility agenda.
And, as the programme can include bespoke information about your own benefits package, it gives you an opportunity to provide something valuable to your employees, while educating them about the benefits you offer.
