Powersystems Partners with Lifetime to Enhance Financial Well-Being for Employees

February 1, 2024

Powersystems is excited to announce our new partnership with Lifetime, a leading provider of financial well-being services. This collaboration is designed to empower our partners by offering comprehensive resources and support to improve their financial health and security, ensuring a brighter future for our team and their families.

In today’s fast-paced world, financial well-being is crucial for overall health and productivity. According to recent studies, employees who experience financial stress are more likely to face health issues, decreased job satisfaction, and lower productivity levels. Understanding the importance of this issue, Powersystems is committed to enhancing our employees’ financial literacy and resilience through this partnership.

Partners can participate in interactive financial well-being workshops led by experienced financial educators. These sessions cover essential topics such as budgeting, debt management, savings strategies, and investment fundamentals. The workshops are designed to provide partners with actionable insights and practical skills, enabling them to take control of their financial future.

In addition to the core topics, the workshops will also address the psychological aspects of financial management, helping partners to build confidence in their decision-making. By fostering a supportive environment for open discussion, partners will feel empowered to ask questions and share experiences with their peers, further enriching the learning process.

Lifetime provides access to personal financial planners who can offer tailored advice and strategies specific to individual circumstances. Each partner can book one-on-one consultations with certified financial advisors to discuss their financial goals, retirement plans, investment opportunities, and debt repayment strategies.

These personalised sessions ensure that partners receive expert guidance on navigating complex financial situations, such as buying a home, funding education, or planning for retirement. By equipping our workforce with tailored financial strategies, we are enhancing their ability to achieve long-term financial stability.

The partnership includes access to a wealth of online resources that support financial well-being. Partners can explore a vast library of articles, calculators, budgeting tools, and educational videos that enable them to manage their finances effectively. These resources cover a wide range of topics, from tax planning to insurance, providing partners with the information they need to make informed financial decisions.

Furthermore, the platform offers a financial health check tool, allowing partners to assess their current financial situation and identify areas for improvement. This self-assessment can help partners take proactive steps toward enhancing their financial health.

Understanding the financial benefits available to them can empower partners to maximise their compensation packages. Lifetime offers tailored education sessions that help staff navigate and utilise their financial benefits effectively, ensuring they get the most from their employment.

These sessions will cover pension plans, health savings accounts, and other financial perks provided by Powersystems, equipping partners with the knowledge to make informed decisions about their benefits. By understanding their options, partners can optimise their financial resources and plan for a secure future.

Partners will have continuous access to Lifetime’s financial well-being resources, ensuring they can seek help and advice whenever needed. This ongoing support structure includes regular updates on financial topics, newsletters with tips, and access to financial coaches who can guide employees through specific challenges.

Moreover, Powersystems encourages a culture of open communication around financial well-being, fostering an environment where employees feel comfortable discussing their financial concerns and seeking support.

“At Powersystems, we recognise that financial well-being is a crucial aspect of our employees’ overall health and productivity,” said Chris Jenkins, Managing Director at Powersystems. “By partnering with Lifetime, we are committed to providing our employees with the necessary resources to improve their financial literacy and security. This partnership will not only support our partners in their personal lives but also contribute to a more engaged and productive workforce.”
