Financial Stress
24% of Employees are Financially Stressed
Research among Australian employees (rather than abroad population sample) report a similar picture. AMP’s research among 2,105 workers revealed that 24% were financially stressed. Reventure’s Workplace Wellbeing report revealed 31% of 1,005 employees were extremely or very stressed about their finances. These studies point to the growing severity of the financial stress crisis.
For individual employees, financial stress manifests in symptoms such as depression, sleep loss, anxiety and poor concentration. Unsurprisingly, financially stressed individuals are less engaged at work, meaning a significant decline in job dedication, productivity, innovation, tenure, and efficiency as a result.

Financial stress impacts absenteeism & presenteeism
Using our own research on financial stress and engagement, we have developed a tool to assist companies to quantify the negative impact financial stress is having on your employees in Australia. Calculated using national averages of the percentage of the workforce that is in a state of financial
stress and impact it has on absenteeism and presenteeism.
Research shows financially stressed individuals take an extra 4 days of sick leave a year and loses 6.9 work hours a week in productivity*. This is not specific to a person’s job or demographic status and is proven to transcend class or economic background.
