pilot program-

financial literacy training for service and manufacturing industry  workers

Staff productivity is influenced by many factors, key among them well-being in relation to financial security. Numerous studies have linked high stress to real or perceived financial challenges, and struggling to make ends meet ultimately has an impact on job performance. Improving staff financial literacy is a great way to alleviate this kind of stress and in turn increase staff productivity. Essentially, the less people are stressed about their personal or family finances, the more they will focus on their work, resulting in improved performance and overall staff retention.

​

Increased financial resilience further enables food and nutrition security, promoting overall staff well-being. Our financial education programs can be tailored to an organization’s needs and culture (through a combination of trainings, infomercials and specifically designed edutainment materials) or, staff can attend one of our regular seminars, held at our training facility for employees from different organisations.
