MAINTAIN / GROW THEIR PRODUCTIVITY
Findings suggest that lack of sleep, financial concerns and giving unpaid care to family members or relatives are negatively associated with productivity. Mental-health problems are also found to cause significant productivity loss, especially in the form of presenteeism. In line with existing research we also find that employees with musculoskeletal and other (chronic) health conditions report higher rates of absenteeism and presenteeism than workers without such conditions.

HEALTHIER EMPLOYEES
It is clear from this research that the workshop participants highly valued the financial education they received, and they personally attributed positive changes in their financial behaviors to their workshop attendance. This research has demonstrated relationships between financial wellness and two important variables: worker health and bosses’ performance ratings.

IMPROVE PRESENTEEISM
The researchers examined how financial stress was associated with absenteeism of credit counseling clients. Data were collected by a national non-profit credit counseling organization, from consumers who telephoned seeking assistance in debt management. The results indicate credit counseling clients’ financial stress affects their absenteeism at work. Clients with high levels of financial stress are more likely to experience higher levels of absenteeism; thus spending work hours handling personal finances, which decreases the time they are at work. The results suggest some insight into providing financial education and assistance for employees with financial strains as productivity loss might influence their pay.
