These are good employees who are good people, and surprisingly, they encompass a wide range of compensation levels and demographics at your organization. What you may or may not see or hear about is the financial-related stress they are under and how that stress is impacting their work-life situation. While each person’s circumstance is situational, the most common root cause is a lack of understanding around the fundamental concepts of personal finance. At this point, you may be asking yourself: “What does this have to do with our company?” The answer is: “A lot.” Financial-related stress impacts your employees and…
