Twenty-five Percent Say Earned Wage Access Is The Most Adopted Benefit They Offer Including Health Benefits According To New Research On DailyPay Clients
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, July 24, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As inflation remains stubbornly high, research shows millions of working Americans still live paycheck to paycheck, with little or no money to adequately save for the future or cover an untimely expense. Fortunately, many employers are embracing new high-impact financial wellness benefits to help team members manage financial challenges. According to a new nationwide survey of employers offering DailyPay, a leading worktech platform, earned wage access ranks as a critical component of their financial wellness benefits offering.Among the key survey results include:
- Over two-thirds (67%) of employers state that earned wage access makes the greatest day-to-day impact on their employees, out-ranking any other financial wellness benefits offering including 401(k), tuition reimbursement, childcare benefits, transportation stipend, and student loan assistance, among others.
- Earned wage access ranks No. 1 among the financial benefits most utilized by employees.
- Sixty-eight percent of employers consider earned wage access the second most popular financial wellness benefit or financial literacy tool offered by employers.
- Forty-four percent of employers find that their employees are specifically requesting earned wage access benefits. This is more than any other financial benefit aside from 401(k) programs (56%).
- A quarter of employers mention DailyPay is the most adopted overall benefit they offer, above healthcare benefits.
