Financial wellbeing in the workplace
Practical financial wellbeing support that helps Irish employers build a more financially resilient, engaged and productive workforce.Financial education that drives engagement
Financial stress is one of the leading causes of poor mental health, absenteeism and disengagement at work, and it lands on your desk as lower engagement, higher absence and benefits that feel undervalued.
NFP helps employers across Ireland improve financial literacy so your people better understand and engage with the workplace benefits you already provide, including pensions, protection, mortgages and long-term planning. This is not insurance; it is a digital-first education and engagement solution designed to support your employees while making it easier for your HR team to communicate benefits clearly.
If you are an existing client, or an employee or member of a scheme we administer, please contact our dedicated admin team directly for any queries about your policy, pension or benefits. This form is for new business enquiries only.
Why financial wellbeing matters
Financial pressure does not stay outside the workplace; it shows up in engagement, retention and overall wellbeing. NFP Ireland’s research found that 75% of workers worry about their personal finances at work at least sometimes, while 58% feel underpaid or undervalued and just 28% feel in control and confident about their finances .
For HR and reward teams, improving financial literacy is one of the most practical levers you have: it can increase benefit uptake and perceived value, reduce HR queries and confusion, and support employee wellbeing and retention.
Why employers invest in financial wellbeing
Understanding employee benefits goes beyond knowing the basics; it involves building confidence, encouraging action and supporting long-term financial wellbeing. That takes more than a policy document or a one-off presentation. A clear financial wellbeing approach can help your organisation:
increase benefit uptake and the perceived value of your offer
reduce HR queries and everyday confusion around benefits
support employee wellbeing, focus and productivity
strengthen retention and your wider reward proposition
give leadership confidence that support is reaching your people
