Technology-forward insurance company Yul recently conducted a survey of American workers and found that 70% believe that stress derived from financial concerns is negatively impacting their ability to perform and execute on the job.

Further, the data indicates that companies can substantially improve their status with both current and potential employees by proactively encouraging and supporting the financial stability of their employees.

Still, only a little more than 1 out of 10 respondents believe their current employer has a satisfactory set of policies and tools in place to proactively help in promoting employees’ well being, while almost 1 in 4 reports that their current employer has no such support system in place at all.

You can read more about that survey here.
