With current market employment conditions staff retention is the number 1 priority for most employers. According to a recent survey by Bamboo HR the top 3 reason staff leave are: financial compensation, better benefits and flexibility.

With current interest rates rises and inflation at the highest level in 40 years, financial stress is significant. While some organisations can afford to increase wages in line with cost of living increases many are not in a position to offer this as a solution.

What if you could offer your staff a program that would help alleviate financial stress, increase productivity while giving your staff a benefit that truly is life changing. Most people believe if they were paid more their financial situation would be better, however this is rarely the case.

Join us to find out what you and your organisation can do to manage the impact caused by financial stress and help them to develop a better understanding of their financial wellbeing.
