Having worked with business owners in establishing retirement plans, we have repeatedly encountered several concerns from plan participants. Some of which include:
Paying off student loans vs. funding retirement accounts?
How much should I have in an emergency fund?
Traditional vs Roth?
How do I create a budget?
What do I do with my former employer’s retirement accounts?
Surveys have repeatedly shown that more than half of Americans list finances as one of their top stressors. These concerns can be a great disruptor in a person’s life, often leading to poor workplace performance and attendance.
Adopting a financial wellness program has helped employees to focus on gaining the education and resources needed to be successful in achieving their financial goals. Many people look to an employer for assistance with overall health and wellness, and what additional benefits or programs they are offering.
