But there’s good news: organisations with proactive strategies see measurable improvements in retention and performance. Here’s 3 Steps to start elevating financial wellbeing in your workplace: 1️⃣ Evaluate your current initiatives: Are mental, physical, and financial health addressed equally? 2️⃣ Fill the gaps: Offer tools like budgeting workshops or retirement planning calculators. 3️⃣ Engage employees: Foster open, judgment-free conversations about financial health.

Is financial wellbeing part of your workplace wellbeing strategy? When it comes to employee wellbeing, financial health often takes a back seat—but it shouldn’t. According to the 2024 Gallagher Workplace Index, employees now rank financial wellbeing as equally important as mental health in shaping their overall satisfaction. Financially secure employees are more focused, less stressed, and more engaged at work. Organisations prioritising wellbeing see: 6.2x higher employee engagement 3.4x stronger intentions to stay If your organisation isn’t addressing financial wellbeing, it’s time to make it a priority. Start by asking: ✅ Are our initiatives covering mental, physical and financial health? ✅ Do we provide tools and education for financial resilience? Take the first step toward a strategy that supports your team—and your bottom line.
