Common Cents is a workplace financial education program that teaches people the proper way to manage their money. Employee financial stress can result in decreased productivity, higher rates of tardiness, absenteeism and turnover, higher healthcare costs and wage garnishment.

 

One in five employees has financial problems significant enough to affect productivity, and those employees will spend many hours trying to resolve those problems while on the job. Providing workers with the tools they need to improve their personal financial stability benefits both employees and their employers.

​

Common Cents curriculum topics include banking, budgeting, debt management, spending strategies and retirement planning.
