The hidden cost of ignoring financial stress
Financial pressures, from rising living and housing costs to ongoing economic volatility and poor retirement adequacy, are creating a wave of financial stress. These worries are no longer confined to home life but are increasingly spilling into the workplace.
This webinar will provide a first look at REBA’s Financial Wellbeing Research 2025 research in association with WEALTH at work. It will uncover key insights including the barriers to improving financial wellbeing provision, the cost of doing nothing and what employers are doing to meet today’s challenges.
The panellists will discuss how reward and benefits practitioners can move beyond thinking about financial wellbeing benefits in silo to create a comprehensive, integrated strategy that prepares employees for both immediate pressures and long-term financial goals.
Key issues to be explored:
• How to design a benefits package that embeds financial resilience at every stage of the employee journey, from new starters to retirement
• Practical proven strategies to turn financial wellbeing into a measurable competitive advantage and reduce business risk
• Common challenges faced when implementing financial wellbeing programmes and how leading employers are tackling them
Thank you to our strategic partner WEALTH at work for supporting this REBA webinar
