Champion an employee benefit that’s good for everyone.

Giving your employees the opportunity of an easy way to save will encourage their financial wellbeing. But it will also provide real benefits to your organisation.

We all know that financial security is important, and helping your employees to achieve it can only be a good thing. Viewed from a different angle, money worries can have a huge impact on mental health, often resulting in reduced productivity and sickness.

According to the Chartered Institute for Personnel and Development (CIPD), 76%* of employees surveyed had been off work due to stress during the past year. This included work-related stress, and the stress caused by cost-of-living pressures.

Having savings is an essential part of financial wellbeing. And in a similar way to pension savings, the automated ‘set and forget’ nature of Workplace Savings makes it easy for your employees to save by making it habitual and effortless.

In short:

  • It’s a valuable employee benefit that also benefits your organisation.
  • It further demonstrates how much you value your employees’ wellbeing.
  • It’s easy to set up and requires no ongoing administration on your part.
  • There is no cost to your organisation.

We would love to talk to you about this in more detail. Simply complete the contact form on the right, and we will be in touch very soon.
