5 companies tackling employee financial wellness

Published 2 Min Read

Financial concerns are the biggest cause of stress among employees, and the current crisis has only exacerbated the need for benefits that help workers navigate the daily stressors in their lives.

Fifty-nine percent of employees say finances cause the bulk of their stress and 35% of employees are distracted by their finances while at work, according to data from consulting firm PwC.

In the fall of 2019, restaurant Noodles & Company teamed up with the financial app Even to provide its more than 8,000 employees with early pay access, which the organization has seen improve retention and employees’ financial wellness.

Since then, a quarter of Noodles’ workforce is actively saving every month and have collectively deposited more than $550,000 into their Even savings accounts
