Financial wellbeing is about having a sense of security and feeling in control of meeting day-to-day financial requirements, whilst having the freedom to enjoy life. It has been proven to impact an employee’s performance in the workplace, as well as absenteeism.
Appropriate solutions can help your charity to negate these risks, whilst improving your ability to attract and retain high quality employees.
