Financial worries affect people, work, and organizations

As an employer, you can do something about this—not as a counselor, but as a caring employer who raises awareness about financial health. This opens the door to dialogue and support.

And it's necessary! Here are a few figures from Nibud:

• 1 in 5 employees experiences financial stress,
• Four out of five employers have employees who are stressed about money,
• Employees experiencing financial stress take an average of 7 more days off per year,
• The total cost per employee experiencing financial stress can reach €18,000 per year due to higher absenteeism, safety risks, lower productivity, higher turnover, and administrative burdens.

Interactive knowledge session and hands-on experience

That is why DI Noord, in collaboration with the organizers of the “Money Stress Costs More Than You Think” campaign, is hosting an interactive information session. The program features experts from the GKB, Aktiva, Stichting Moedig Groningen, CSU, and an expert with firsthand experience in dealing with money stress. They will guide you through:

• the early recognition of signs,
• What are the first steps you can take to minimize the impact and absenteeism?
• How do you raise awareness about financial health, and how do you broach the subject with your employee?

All of this is supplemented by the practical experience of an employee and an employer (CSU).

The informational session is aimed at executives, managers, and HR consultants.
