Even before the cost of living squeeze, the impacts of Covid-19 have led many employees to struggle more with their finances – putting huge pressure on their mental health and ability to be productive at work:
53% struggle more with their finances since Covid-19
2x as many worry about their financial situation every day
95% of those say it has a negative impact on their mental health
43 million hours are lost each week to poor financial wellbeing
40% say their financial situation affects their ability to be productive
Supporting the financial wellbeing of your people now is one of the most effective ways you can improve their personal and professional lives.
We surveyed 1,000 working people across the UK to uncover the financial wellbeing and mental health impact of the cost of living squeeze.
By downloading this report, we hope you’ll find greater clarity and a deeper perspective on how poor financial wellbeing is affecting productivity and costing your business.

Holistic wellbeing is not a buzzword for us
We’re complex beings and the areas that make up our health are interdependent. The link between our mental and financial wellbeing is undisputed. Investing in someone’s financial wellbeing, means investing in their overall wellbeing.
We like to keep things simple
We've had a few late nights, early mornings and countless coffees to create our own in-house world-class technology. This means a simple and straightforward process for your people and payroll team - always.
Our job is to help you
We’ve partnered with some of the largest and most complex organisations in the UK. Every business has their own unique challenges - complex payroll systems, a diverse and dispersed workforce. Our job is to take the hassle out of launching a new benefit away from you, and into our hands to make it happen smoothly.
