Employee Financial Wellness Programme

A service to enhance Employee satisfaction, performance and retention to benefit your Employees and your Organisation.

Why Your Business Needs This Programme

Leading research* shows that:

  • 75% of Employees believe that Financial Wellness should be part of their Employer’s benefits or rewards package
  • 60% of Employees say finance is their #1 source of stress
  • 33% of Employees report that financial worries impair their concentration at work
  • 25% attribute financial concerns to a decline in productivity and confidence at work
  • 20.5% of Employees’ working hours each week are devoted to their financial concerns
  • 48% of Employees would be more committed to staying with their Employer for a longer period of time if their Employer offered Financial Wellness benefits
  • Employees are over 20% more likely to stay with their Employer when provided with Financial Wellness and Education support

Such a decrease in Employee satisfaction, productivity, and retention hugely impacts your Business through unnecessary hiring and training expenses, as well as overall loss of revenue.

With 10-years’ experience operating our Employee Financial Wellness Programme, it is designed to enhance your Employee’s satisfaction by reducing their financial stresses and concerns, leading to the main benefit of the Programme: increasing your Employee’s performance and Staff retention.

Financial worries are not restricted to how much an Employee is paid, but also includes items such as being overwhelmed by the Swiss financial system, not knowing with whom to speak to organise their finances, being concerned whether they are doing the right things, and much more.

Your Employees want to learn more, and our 1-to-1 or group meetings (held online or in-person) ensure a complete understanding of the financial system within which they are living.

Employees will receive a dedicated e-mail address of your choosing, provided by Patterson Mills (as an example, “CompanyFinancialWellness@pattersonmills.ch”).

Employees questions can relate to any financial questions or concerns they may have, be it personal finances, pensions, investments, taxation, or anything else.
