'Work Perks' Financial Education for Employee Groups

A Benefit Your Employees Will Appreciate; No Cost to You. 
Available to All Local Employers.

In today’s economy, many of your employees face financial challenges.  Often, those challenges are brought into the workplace, and can negatively impact your bottom line. What if you had educational programs in place to help your employees ward off financial problems before they began? What if you could help solve existing problems? How beneficial would that be to you and to them?
 
Financial education is a valuable benefit that you can give your workforce. It costs nothing; we do the work.
Now more than ever, your employees need trustworthy financial guidance. Blackhawk Bank will help by presenting programs that teach financial responsibility and set your employees on a course for success. Our coaching is invaluable.  You’ll see tangible results in terms of less stress and conflict, and greater productivity. 

Challenges:
Do some employees ask to borrow money because they can’t get loan? Do they lack credit history or need to repair credit?
Are some of your employees unable to get a checking account, leaving them ineligible for direct deposit?
Do employees ask you to explain financial terms?   Do they ask you how they can qualify for a mortgage, or ask advice about retirement planning?

We can help your employees establish or repair bad credit. They’ll learn the discipline of saving.  They’ll gain empowerment by becoming credit-worthy, minimizing requests for pay-day advances or longer-term loans when they face financial difficulty.
We offer a 2nd chance checking account to facilitate Direct Deposit
We‘ll teach your employees to understand their credit report and give them the tools to improve their credit rating.
Home ownership can stabilize your workforce. We offer guidance and mortgage pre-approval so potential buyers can shop with confidence and added bargaining power.
