Maxis GBN unveils new educational toolkit
MAXIS Global Benefits Network (GBN) has launched a new educational toolkit focusing on financial wellness. The toolkit is a ready-made communications campaign, enabling multinationals to educate their people on what it means to be ‘financially fit’, with tips on how they can understand – and change – their money mindset. This new service is available to MAXIS GBN’s multinational clients.
Financial stress impacts employees all over the world, with people in many countries facing significant increases to the cost of living, rising inflation and other financial pressures. And with each different employee having their own unique financial priorities (including paying off loans, buying a house, caring for families and planning for retirement, to name a few) it can be a challenge for employers to meet their people’s specific needs and help improve financial wellness.
MAXIS GBN said that its new toolkit equips multinationals with everything they need to educate their people on financial wellness and support them in changing their relationship with money. It seeks to help multinationals care for their people who may be facing financial stress and limit the burden on mental health, ultimately improving the overall health, wellbeing and productivity of their workforce.
The toolkit contains five weeks’ worth of materials and a facilitator’s guide, helping multinationals successfully run the educational campaign. The content focuses on:
• what it means to be ‘financially fit’
• what is your money personality?
• how to think about debt
• saving for ‘future you’
• why you need an ‘ICE’ fund – and how to build one.
“Financial stress is a huge concern for people all around the world, and has a significant impact on mental wellbeing,” said Dr Leena Johns (pictured), chief health & wellness officer at MAXIS GBN. “And with such staggering statistics around its impact on employee productivity, it’s clear that this is a business issue too.
“Multinationals are well-placed to help employees with their journey to financial fitness, and we’re excited to be launching our financial wellness toolkit, equipping our clients with the resources they need to run an educational campaign in their workplace and really make a difference for their people.
“Employers who take this issue seriously and support their people through financial stress have the potential to reap the rewards and see a happier, healthier and more productive workforce.”
The financial wellness toolkit is available to MAXIS’ multinational clients via its OneClient portal.
