    The Negative Impact of Employee Poor Personal Financial Behaviors on Employers Author: E. Thomas Garman, Irene E. Leech and John E. Grable This article demonstrates that there are substantial costs to employers caused by the stresses associated with poor personal financial behaviors of employees. Approximately 15% of workers in the United States are currently experiencing stress from poor financial behaviors to the extent that it negatively impacts their productivity. The proportion of workers experiencing financial problems that negatively impact productivity for a single employer could range as high as 40 to 50% depending upon certain factors. The costs of reduced employee productivity because of poor personal financial behaviors are substantial. The full extent of the costs to employers is unknown. Key Words: absenteeism, employee assistance program, employee productivity, personal financial behavior, stress, substance abuse

  •  
    We have dealt with 9 Buzzard in the past 5 years and all of them have had fractures and internal injuries which had caused them to need putting to sleep. We have even transported them to other rescue centre elsewhere in the country for specialist veterinary advice and support, but they have all had to be put to sleep. This has been quite disheartening

      values behind branding ;-)
    • william doust

  • Consumers wants more. They desire a cause behind a brand, reason why beyond product attributes. They look for products that exercise responsibility within society.

      ..."If, as I have been arguing, stigma is a cause of stress, then stigma as a way of life will turn out to be a cause of ill health. And the effect will be a direct consequence of stigma itself, not an indirect result of it. In other words, it will turn out that people on the bottom of spociety's hierarchies, who die younger and endure more illneses, will suffer because they pereceive themselves at the bottom - not just becasue they can't afford doctors or good food or safe housing.
