Hymans Robertson report: Employee Financial Stress Survey

Based on responses from 2,000 working UK adults, the survey shows employer support has grown significantly over the past year. 

Yet almost a third of employees who have access to that support indicate it does not feel relevant to their needs. Some groups, particularly women and Gen X employees, are being left further behind than workforce averages suggest.

  • 42% of UK employees are now financially vulnerable, up from 36% in 2025.

  • 68% of financially stressed employees say it affects their motivation or engagement at work.
  • 49% of women are financially vulnerable, compared with 35% of men.
