Eolas Financial Wellbeing programs tackle employee concerns by helping employees gain control

over their finances, leading to a more focused, motivated and productive workforce.

The workplace is a natural location for financial wellbeing initiatives to take place because it's the

conduit through which people earn money. As a result, financial wellbeing initiatives within the

workplace create a mutually beneficial environment of education, engagement, motivation and

increased financial security:

 Improving employee physical and mental health (people with high levels of financial stress

are more prone to sickness);

 Augmenting the perception of your company brand;

 Increasing employee engagement, productivity and retention;

 Decreasing financial worries and distractions; and

 Reducing employee absenteeism.

Organisations have every reason to want their employees to be financially sound, and an effectively

designed employee financial wellness program can help employers reduce a key barrier to

productivity and motivation in the workplace.
