When Maxwell Group first introduced earned wage access, it solved an immediate need: giving employees faster access to their pay.
But over time, a bigger question emerged—was it actually helping employees get ahead?
In this session, Maxwell Group shares why they decided to rethink their approach to financial wellness, what they changed, and what they've seen since.
Join Heather Stewart, Director of Talent Acquisition at Maxwell Group, and Jaime McDougall, Head of Marketing at Chime Workplace, for a candid look at how one organization moved beyond a traditional EWA model to focus on long-term financial outcomes—without adding complexity to payroll.
We'll discuss:
- What prompted Maxwell to reevaluate their EWA program
- How they approached the transition internally
- What's changed for employees since making the shift
- Lessons for other employers considering a similar move
