Insights from Alight My recent discussion with Alight, a benefits services company, highlighted pivotal insights into the urgent evolving need to redefine benefit strategies to foster engagement, productivity, and long-term employee loyalty. Alight’s 2024 International Workforce and Wellbeing Mindset Study paints a stark picture of employee sentiment. Nearly 75% of employees report moderate to high daily stress, but it also reveals a significant opportunity for improvement.

Almost half of employees admit to struggling financially, and 67% believe they won’t retire as planned. Compensation remains a top driver of job changes, but better benefits and work-life flexibility weigh heavily on […]

worklife Article: The High Cost of Silos – Trillions Lost When HR, Company Goals Are Out of Sync

Posted on by

It’s become a cliché of business: working in silos is almost always a terrible idea. With that in mind, fresh research reveals a stark reality for HR leaders in particular, as more than 8 in 10 companies report critical misalignment between their department’s initiatives and those of the broader business, contributing to an estimated $8.9 trillion in annual economic losses. It is a disconnect that’s about much more than just organizational efficiency. Rather, it can have a profound, direct impact on employee satisfaction and retention and, in fact, contributes to more than 80% of workers actively seeking out other jobs. The findings — from a survey of 500 HR leaders and 1,200 employees by the talent intelligence platform Eightfold AI, in association with 3Sixty Insights — point […]

The Link Between Financial Wellness and Employee Performance

Posted on by

Roughly 60% of Americans reported living paycheck to paycheck in 2024. These numbers are unsettling, especially given their consistent growth. But it also means nearly two-thirds of the U.S. workforce could face a financial crisis over something as simple as a flat tire. The downstream effects of this are not just confined to workers.

Rethinking the 40-Hour Work Week: How Plum’s Discovery Tools Can Improve Productivity

Posted on by

I was introduced to Plum’s Discovery Survey tool by Michelle Meehan at HR Tech last week. Michelle and I had a great conversation about the outdated work structures that are affecting both employee experience and productivity. We touched on the need to rethink the traditional 40-hour work week, which, as it approaches its 100th anniversary in 2026, is long overdue for retirement—especially in many modern professions. Propelled faster by the pandemic, changes in technological efficiency, new work-life standards, and the values of younger workers have pushed this trend along to the point that it has to be a major part of the conversation when discussing employee experience and overall business optimization. Another noteworthy factor in all of this is how businesses are turning more towards […]

The Shift to Cashless Tips and What It Means for Workers

Posted on by

Recently, I came across a feature that caught my attention—Dayforce’s new cashless tip functionality, which is integrated into their Dayforce Wallet. In a world that’s rapidly moving toward cashless transactions, the tradition of cash tips is starting to fade. This change is significant, especially for tipped workers who have historically relied on cash for immediate, untaxed earnings. Let’s be real: for many in the service industry, cash tips have long provided a bit of relief from the tax burden. When you’re barely scraping by, that extra bit of cash—off the books—can feel like a lifeline. Whether it was for a sandwich on the way home or a drink after a long shift, cash tips offered something immediate and untouchable by the taxman. For decades, this […]

Maximizing Private Equity Performance: The Role of PEOs in Strategic Human Capital Management

Posted on by

Private equity (PE) firms face several challenges in their quest for high-potential investments, including rising capital costs, extended holding periods, and economic unpredictability. However, an often-overlooked factor in their evaluations of their portfolio companies is the importance of effective human capital management. The success of most companies is intricately tied to the presence of skilled and talented employees. In 2024, this is becoming more crucial than ever, especially as the best employees look towards companies that value employee well-being. A study by FTSE Russell found that companies focusing on effectively managing their human capital have significantly higher productivity, revenue, and profitability, with revenue-per-employee growth nearly double the average rate. These can be untapped gains for a new acquisition, especially given the higher attrition rates during […]
