On December 8, GuideSpark presented a webinar called “The Need for Financial Wellness”. In this webinar we discussed how poor financial health is affecting companies and their employees. The webinar was well attended and definitely shows that financial wellness is becoming an important issue at corporations across America. In fact, the following poll shows that most attendees believed that 26-50% of employees are being negatively affected by financial issues.

These results are not surprising based on our experience. Financial issues are a productivity drain for corporations and is something we believe companies will begin to address in the coming years. If you missed the webinar, please let us know and we’ll let you know when we have our next one.
