“Only about 30 percent of your employees are doing well. The rest need help.”
Imagine hiring the brightest doctor in the nation to come and assess your employees. After surveying each one, doing a complete examination, and running a series of tests, he comes to you with the news that 70 percent are unwell. How would you respond? Would you get the care and attention to make the company a more healthy workplace? Of course, you would!
Unfortunately, this statistic isn’t imagined, but it may not be a problem for physicians to solve. According to a recent article, these numbers reflect the financial health of most Americans. Financial wellness is often overlooked but plays a critical role in the health of any organization. Not buying it? According to data from SUM180, an online financial planning service, 29 percent of employees admit to missing work to deal with stress caused by their own finances. That has a huge impact on your bottom line.
Employers often think their industry is the exception to the rule despite data proving otherwise. In the article cited above, a survey by research provider Raddon found that 44 percent of responders said they were “very” or “extremely” literate, but when given a financial quiz, only six percent scored an “A.” And to open your eyes on how bad off employees are, a late March report showed 45.4 percent of consumers had $2,500 or less in savings, while 15.6 percent had no savings at all.
