What Will Drive Frontline Employee Engagement? Transforming Pay Into Progress

September 17, 2025
Oceanside B Ballroom
Breakout Session
Employee engagement is often measured by connection, culture, and community. But just as much of the story starts at their wallet. Rising healthcare costs, renewed student loan payments, and day-to-day financial pressures are taking a growing toll on employee focus, retention, and financial well-being. The result: HR leaders are being asked to support employees in deeper, more foundational ways.

This session will share a new way of thinking about employee engagement: turning pay into progress. Beyond higher wages, employees want to feel they’re getting ahead, not just getting by. With a holistic approach to employee financial health, employers can meet workers where they are on their financial journey— helping them build credit, save for the long term, and access pay early. At the same time, employers can receive insights into how their workforce is earning, saving, and making progress. 

With a focus on progress, you can have an engaged workforce like never before – and real financial health impact data to prove it.
