Why forward-thinking companies in the Middle East are prioritising employee financial wellness programs
Did you know it’s been proven that an employee's financial well being affects the overall performance of a business they are working for? This was reported by the UK’s Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development.
The good news is, when employees face fewer financial worries and distractions, not only do they benefit, but so does their employer. That doesn’t necessarily mean increasing compensation, but rather, helping employees find balance and control over their finances.
