Know What Your Employees Want
Intuitive employers and business owners are always seeking to stay ahead of the curve in order to attract new employees and keep the ones they love. How can we entice a loyal workforce in a way that aligns with our company values and mission?
We can no longer deny that the times are changing, and employees’ needs are going to reflect the needs of the prevailing generation in the workforce. Millennials are in their 20s and 30s, and they have had a controversial and misunderstood streak in business strategy.
Whether or not a business owner agrees with the shift in priorities by the workforce, the facts cannot be ignored. Millennials are not following in their parents’ footsteps, and their future feels far less certain when they are dragging around massive debt.
A Heavy Burden on the Workforce
The weight of emotional and mental stress is heavy. Currently, over 43 million Americans have one or more outstanding student loan and, 1.35 trillion dollars are owed in student loans federally and privately. On average, a college graduate has a student loan balance of more than $37,000 and will be making $300 payments every month for 25 years. Many college graduates put off saving for their retirement because of this massive burden. Prospective employees will make a decision on where to work based on their ability to pay back that heavy student loan and whether or not a company is able to offer support. A student loan benefit from an employer is crucial to the majority of college graduates entering the workforce.
