Financial wellness benefits: A must-have in a company’s DEI efforts

There’s a strong connection between the financial wellness benefits you offer and your Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives – but it’s one that companies frequently miss.

As companies put a greater emphasis on DEI, it is important that you do not overlook the importance of financial wellness, given the many systemic and cultural disadvantages that some employees face when participating in our economic system. That’s where employee benefits are most impactful and can help make up meaningful ground in the financial gap facing workers – specifically, adopting programs that help employees build financial resilience by ensuring equitable access to financial products.
