The direct and indirect costs associated with Employee Health & Happiness has shifted Employee Wellness from voluntary benefit to Strategic Imperative. HR is on the front lines of this fight. Are you ready?
Employee Health & Happiness lives at the intersection of employee's personal goals and employer's financial ones. Recruiting, developing, and retaining talent is no longer enough to remain competitive. Companies now have to find a way to keep their employees, healthy, happy, and engaged. This shift means that Employee Wellness is now part of the Talent Management Lifecycle and HR has to shift their role from Human Capital Management to Chief Wellness Officer.
Companies are under attack! Not from rising energy costs, foreign competition, or regulatory pressure, but from a steady decrease in employee health & happiness. The "weight" of this problem is falling on the bottom lines of companies in the form of rapidly increasing costs and rapidly decreasing employee productivity and engagement. Once thought to be an involuntary benefit, Employee Wellness is now being discussed in corporate board rooms all over the world as a critical element of business strategy. HR is expected to understand and manage the risk associated with this problem and create a sustainability strategy that includes health & happiness. This eBook discussed the economics of this fight and how the war talent is now happening in the gym and cafeteria.

Optimizing Rewards for Business Results and Greater Employee EngagementTowers Perrin
This presentation provides insights into how the financial crisis has shifted the primary drivers of attraction, retention and engagement in the health care industry. It also explores a model for the employment relationship that takes into account not just big-ticket items like pay and benefits, but also relational rewards like career development and special assignments.
This document discusses financial wellness programs in the workplace. It notes that 40% of Americans worry about money at work, costing companies an average of 16-20 hours per month in lost productivity per employee. For a company with 100 employees making $30,000 per year, this amounts to $120,000 annually in lost productivity without accounting for additional costs like turnover and low morale. The document then outlines the benefits of financial wellness programs for both employees and employers, including increased productivity, boosted morale, and reduced absenteeism for employers along with benefits like debt elimination and retirement savings for employees. It claims there is a 3:1 return on investment for companies that implement effective financial wellness programs.

Promoting Financial Wellness and Disciplined Spending Among EmployeesPurchasing Power
If you missed last month’s WorldatWork Total Rewards 2010 Annual Conference and Exhibition, here’s a quick recap of the presentation made by Elizabeth Halkos, Purchasing Power’s vice president of sales and marketing.
In her presentation, Halkos commented that with the current unstable economic climate, we are witnessing increased unemployment rates, rising debt, record-high foreclosures, and staggering credit card charge-offs. For employers, there is increased concern over rising healthcare costs. Many companies find themselves under stress and in trouble, looking for ways to cut costs while making every effort to boost morale and individual performance levels of employees.
For many employees, the issue is the same; they find themselves financially stressed. This stress often mitigates the effectiveness of employee benefit programs. Financial stress leads to less satisfaction with pay, wasted time at work, more absenteeism, and even health issues.
Halkos pointed out that often employees turn to their employers for assistance and protection. This presents an opportunity for employers to find new ways to ease stress and improve the quality of life for their employees. One way to do this is to engage employees in programs that promote a better financial future including financial literacy programs where employees are taught how to manage their finances, make sound decisions, understand debt literacy and utilize employer-sponsored discount and purchase programs like Purchasing Power. By motivating employees to take charge of their financial future, employers will have workers that are more engaged, more satisfied with their jobs, more financially secured and happy.

I had the pleasure of presenting to the TechAlliance Peer to Peer Finance Group (London, ON). The session addressed the importance of Employee Engagement and Generational Management!
The document discusses how various companies in Pakistan responded to the economic crisis by changing their human resource practices. It describes how leading companies in industries like IT, telecom, beverages, electronics, and engineering handled hiring, compensation, training, and communication with employees during this difficult time. The key lessons highlighted are that companies should communicate clearly with employees, focus on retaining good talent, rationalize costs like compensation and benefits, increase internal training, and ensure HR strategies align with the overall business focus and goals for growth.

Financial stress negatively impacts employee productivity. 25% of employees have severe financial problems that reduce their work productivity by an average of 20 hours per month. This financial stress costs employers $463.44 per month in lost productivity per employee. Providing financial education programs in the workplace can help reduce employee absenteeism and financial stress, increasing productivity and saving employers money.
Financial wellness programs aim to improve employee motivation and productivity by reducing stress from personal financial issues. Such programs educate employees on financial planning, investing, and retirement savings to help them achieve financial security. Employers are increasingly prioritizing these programs to benefit from more motivated, productive employees who are less distracted by financial concerns and more likely to stay with the company long-term.
This document provides a handbook for employers to recruit and hire the long-term unemployed. It begins with an executive summary that outlines the scope of long-term unemployment in the US and how hiring the long-term unemployed can benefit businesses. The handbook then makes the business case for why organizations should tap into this overlooked talent pool by outlining ways it can increase access to qualified candidates, augment sourcing strategies, focus on inclusion to drive diversity, and support local economies. The handbook provides a maturity model, recommendations across the recruiting lifecycle, and an implementation toolkit to help organizations successfully recruit and hire the long-term unemployed.
This document describes using incentives to encourage workplace safety and reduce workers' compensation costs. It discusses how historical claims affect insurance premiums and introduces a hypothetical company that could save over $90,000 annually with an incentive program awarding gift credits for every month without claims. Employees would accumulate credits toward progressively more valuable gift selections online to motivate safe behaviors without costs unless goals are met. Contact information is provided to discuss customizing such a program.
Employee Benefits in the Obamacare World & How to Maximize Its ImpactJoseph Appelbaum
Are you struggling to understand Obamacare and how it impacts your company? Do you want to learn about how to use employee benefits as a recruitment and retention tool?
This presentation will provide valuable insight into employee benefits in the Obamacare world and how to maximize its impact. Under Obamacare, employers are offered the option to "pay or play." But, for most companies there is no choice—they must “play” in order to recruit and retain employees. This not only includes offering health insurance but also life, disability, and the whole spectrum of employee benefits.
Here you'll learn about the impact of Obamacare on the employee benefits mix and employer decision-making process, along with understanding the importance of insurance benefits as a mandatory piece of the total compensation puzzle.

You Can Do That With Rapid Response Funds? (Philadelphia Version)Timothy Theberge
The document provides an overview of Rapid Response funding and services. It discusses how Rapid Response funding can be used for layoff aversion strategies, transition management services, skills training, and forming partnerships to help dislocated workers find new employment opportunities. Rapid Response aims to engage employers and workers proactively and provide customized assistance to meet their needs during economic transitions.
The document discusses key concerns that keep business owners up at night, including ensuring adequate retirement funding, protecting the business from unexpected events, attracting and retaining high-quality employees, and planning for business succession. It outlines strategies in areas like risk management, employee benefits, succession planning, and personal financial planning to help business owners address these worries. The presentation aims to help business owners prioritize goals, understand integrated planning approaches, and receive follow-up consultation.
The survey results show that the majority of organizations offer standard health care benefits like prescription drug coverage, dental insurance, and vision insurance. Preventive health benefits focused on wellness initiatives that provide incentives to employees have grown in popularity over the last five years. Retirement savings plans have shifted toward defined contribution plans and Roth 401(k) options. Paid time off plans combining vacation, sick, and personal days into one plan are also increasing in prevalence.

The document summarizes the findings of a survey of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in South Africa regarding employee benefits. Key findings include: the majority of SME decision makers and staff believe employee benefits are important for attracting employees, with retirement funding and medical aid being the most desired benefits; few SMEs currently offer retirement funding due to costs and lack of prioritization; and SMEs have unique needs around lower costs, flexibility, and education for retirement fund solutions. Confidence in existing retirement funds offered by SMEs is moderate among both decision makers and staff.

Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of skin infections that forms clusters resembling bunches of grapes under the microscope. It is resistant to many antibiotics but can be treated with penicillin, methicillin, or vancomycin. S. aureus produces several virulence factors like toxins and enzymes that allow it to infect humans and cause diseases ranging from minor skin infections to life-threatening conditions like toxic shock syndrome. Laboratory tests help identify S. aureus and determine appropriate antibiotic treatment.
This document discusses employee engagement and disengagement. It defines engagement as having a positive connection to work that motivates excellence. Disengagement is costly, reducing profits and productivity while increasing costs and staff turnover. The document recommends using an engagement survey to identify disengaged employees, the causes, and costs of disengagement. This allows companies to improve engagement, productivity and profits through an action plan. Client testimonials praise the surveys for validating issues and focusing improvement efforts. Contact information is provided for Profitable Personnel.
The document discusses how attrition, or employee turnover, is a silent but significant threat to businesses. It costs businesses thousands or millions each year in lost talent, productivity, and knowledge. However, few businesses properly measure and address attrition. The document argues that businesses should focus on understanding why employees leave and keeping talent, rather than just reacting to turnover. Reducing attrition requires measuring its costs, understanding engagement levels, and transforming company culture through leadership.
This document discusses employee attrition (turnover), which refers to employees leaving their jobs. It provides definitions of attrition and attrition rate. Some of the key reasons for attrition discussed include higher pay elsewhere, poor working conditions, lack of career advancement opportunities, and personal reasons. Specific to the insurance industry, the document notes attrition rates of 35-40% for agents due to the high-pressure nature of the work and difficulties sustaining business over time. Calculating accurate attrition rates can be challenging for organizations.

Employee retention - the real cost of losing an employeeSamir Hader
For businesses to thrive in today’s economy, finding and retaining the best employees is important. This is especially true for small businesses and nonprofits competing with larger businesses, and larger budgets, for top talent.
The document discusses the hidden financial risks to businesses posed by poor employee engagement and high staff turnover. It notes that while businesses often focus on quickly replacing departing employees, the real damage comes from "disengaged remainers" - unhappy employees who stay but undermine the business. The document advocates that businesses must accurately measure engagement, understand the full costs of attrition including lost productivity and knowledge, and make improving engagement a top priority in order to boost profitability, customer satisfaction, and reduce absenteeism and turnover. It claims that most organizations fail to properly account for the financial impacts of disengagement and attrition, which can amount to millions of pounds annually."

Employees Are Out of Control and It\'s Costing You Moneythreesquare
The document discusses how employee financial illiteracy costs employers through decreased productivity and increased healthcare costs. It recommends that employers implement quality workplace financial programs that provide financial education, counseling, and advice to improve employee financial wellness. Research shows such programs typically yield a return on investment of 3:1 for employers through reduced absenteeism, improved job performance, and other benefits.
Compensation and remuneration are important factors for both employees and employers, as they impact motivation, loyalty, and standard of living. Components of remuneration typically include wages, salaries, incentives, fringe benefits, perquisites, and non-monetary benefits. However, compensation practices must be carefully managed to avoid issues like pay envy, high turnover, and damage to morale when disparities exist or the market changes rapidly.

2. EMPLOYEE FINANCIAL CRISIS: WHAT IS IT COSTING YOUR COMPANY?
When first reported in 1979, 10% of working adults said that they routinely experience personal financial
difficulties; today that number is up to 25% and growing. USA Today finds that the #1 cause of stress in the
workplace is personal finances. According to the Personal Finance Employee Education Foundation, 30 million
American workers (or 1 in 4 working adults) report they are seriously financially distressed and dissatisfied with
their personal finances.
And it’s growing. The American Psychological Association’s 2008 Stress Survey states that financial stress is
on the rise in light of recent economic conditions.
Money troubles follow employees to work: According to a Virginia Tech study, the typical employee uses up to
27 work hours a month to do their personal banking, pay bills, handle phone calls from creditors and collectors,
and calculate financial scenarios in anticipation of payday. Although it is the employee’s debt, it has become
the employer’s problem as well.
Here are just a few of the ways to calculate the cost of financial stress in the workplace.
Absenteeism
The cost of absent employees adds up quickly. When employees miss work, your business loses the
contribution and productivity of each absent employee, which negatively affects goals, revenue projections and
profits. Research shows that unscheduled absences cost companies more than $700 per employee each year.
Presenteeism
“Presenteeism” is another serious concern for business. When an employee is present for work but physically,
mentally or emotionally distracted, their job performance and productivity suffer. Studies by industry experts
put the impact of financial stress on productivity in real tangible dollars. A study by “The Money Coach” says
25% of an organization’s employees are impacted by financial stress. Assuming that the financial stress of
those 1 in 4 employees reduces their productivity by a mere 10% (in other words, each affected employee
spends about four hours each week distracted by money), the end result is a quantifiable cost to the
organization’s bottom line.
Using that formula, a company with 100 employees earning $30,000 annually on average, will spend nearly
$3,000,000 each year on payroll for its employees. According to the conservative calculations above, the
impact of its employees’ financial issues will result in a cost of nearly $75,000 annually* – and that is in lost
productivity alone!
Workplace Accidents:
Distracted employees are a danger to company property and equipment. Many worker compensation claims
are tied directly to employee inattentiveness. Research by The Herman Group proved that 60 – 80% of on-
the-job accidents are stress related. In 2001, it cost employers $29,000 per work place accident due to lost
productivity, uninsured costs, accident investigation, production slowdowns and new employee training.
Retention:
Most employees in financial distress believe that they can ‘earn’ their way out of the problem by changing jobs
to make more money. Unfortunately, without changing the behaviors that caused the stress, most employees
simply exacerbate their financial issues after securing a higher rate of pay. Instead of resolving financial
problems, they create new ones to outspend the new wages.

3. For employers who lose employees regularly due to job hopping in search of a bigger paycheck, the costs can
be significant. Industry studies show that it can cost an employer $3,000 to $13,000 to replace and retrain an
employee. Let’s assume that your organization has very little turnover, just 10% of your workforce. Out of 100
employees, you will spend at least $30,000 in replacing and retraining.
In addition, providing employees with financial literacy training is a benefit that will significantly improve their
personal lives. There’s value added to the relationship between an employer and its employees when the
workers realize that the organization cares about their personal well-being. The loyalty created by offering a
benefit that impacts an employee’s personal life can significantly reduce an employer’s retention numbers.
Human Resource Department Distractions:
Normally, the HR Department feels the impact of financial stress the most. Fielding calls from creditors,
processing wage garnishments and advanced wage payments, processing 401(k) loans, and other time
wasters are a distraction to the functions of HR. Up to 10% of the department’s payroll budget can be impacted
by these types of activities.
Retirement Plan Contributions:
Employee participation in employer-sponsored retirement savings plans, such as 401(k) s and 403(b) s, can
also be negatively impacted. When most employees don’t know how to do basic budgeting, they’re not likely to
find money to set aside for their retirement, which puts their financial future in jeopardy and can limit
executives’ contributions to the plan. Take a look at your contribution rates. Can they improve? Financial
education is not a substitute for the open enrollment education that you get from your 401k provider. It should
complement those efforts.
Retirement Plan Withdrawals:
Do you have an increasing number of withdrawal requests, specifically hardship requests? This is a
quantifiable number for your organization and a sign that the workforce is in crisis mode.
Health Care Costs:
Employees that are stressed over money also experience health and welfare issues. These problems—
hypertension, insomnia, depression, fatigue, and increased drug and alcohol abuse—increase an employer’s
health care costs.
Absenteeism $70,000 $700 per employee x 100 employees
