The TalentCulture #TChat Show is back live on Wednesday, Aug 5, 2015, from 1-2 pm ET (10-11 am PT).
Last week we talked about why recruiting is a legitimate career choice , and this week we’re going to talk about how employers can help bridge the great debt divide.
It’s nearly official — the fact that Millennials make up the majority of the workforce . But with all the possibilities ahead for empowering a better workforce, the future is bleak because of the burden of student loan debt and rising healthcare costs.
They’ve reached crisis proportions and they’re having a profound impact on the nation’s workers and employers. It’s a critical issue today with not only younger generations being able to save for the future, but many Gen Xers and Baby Boomers also feel these financial pains and bear the brunt of lingering student debt.
The need fo r employers to offer employees assistance with these issues is greater than ever, especially if they hope to recruit and retain key talent, reduce costly turnover and make up the ground they’re losing due to the impact of their student debt and the healthcare reform on their medical benefits.
