#EmergencySavings
Many companies are considering employee financial wellness as part of their benefits and compensation strategy. Helping workers build emergency savings is one tactic that is gaining popularity. To shed light on what employees expect and prefer in a workplace emergency savings program, AARP will release data from a new national survey of the U.S. workforce. Join the AARP Public Policy Institute to learn about and discuss these consumer insights.
Leading behavioral economist Warren Cormier, CEO of Boston Research Technologies and Executive Director of DCIIA Retirement Research Center, will review findings from a new AARP national survey of consumers. An interactive discussion with providers and policy experts will follow. We will continue the conversation with a networking lunch for in-person attendees.
