Understanding Longevity: Living Longer Better

The benefits of employee financial wellness programmes

An employee’s ability to deal with the stresses associated with personal financial issues can have profound implications on their overall wellness. This in turn can also have consequences for how they perform at work.   Many employers are beginning to realise the mutual benefits of an employee financial wellness and benefits strategy and programme. Taking steps to support their workforce in this way can deliver positive benefits for their workforce and for their business through improved employee productivity, retention and engagement.  Listen to our latest episode of Employer Insights Ireland where our host James Campbell discusses the importance of employee financial wellness with Fergus Moyles, Mercer’s Head of Private Wealth Strategy in Ireland.
