Feel Good Hub explained for employers.
Financial Wellbeing in the workplace
Most of your team spend more time worrying about money than they will ever let on at work. It shows up quietly, in lost focus, in a difficult month, in a good person handing in their notice for a role that pays a little more. Supporting your people’s financial wellbeing is one of the most practical, and most appreciated, things an employer can do, and it does not have to mean paying everyone more.
This page explains what financial wellbeing in the workplace really means, why it matters to your business, and how the Feel Good Hub gives your team genuine financial support rather than another unused perk.
If you would rather just talk it through, we are always happy to.

What is financial wellbeing in the workplace?
Financial wellbeing is about feeling secure and in control of your money: managing day to day, coping with the unexpected, and being on track for the future (Money and Pensions Service). In the workplace, it means giving your employees the tools, guidance, and advice to get there, rather than leaving them to face big financial decisions alone.
It is not about prying into anyone’s finances; it is about making good help easy to reach when someone needs it.
Why financial wellbeing for employees matters.
Money worries do not stay at home. According to the Money and Pensions Service, almost 8 in 10 UK employees take their money worries to work, where they affect focus, performance and attendance. That is a cost most businesses are carrying without realising it.
Your team feel it, and they increasingly expect you to do something about it. CIPD research found that 59% of employees think it is important that their employer has a policy to support their financial wellbeing, and more than four in five believe employers should focus on financial wellbeing as much as mental and physical wellbeing.
Real example
Picture a 32-year-old in your team trying to buy a first home in Leeds on a salary of £38,000. They have a small deposit, they changed jobs three months ago, and they have opened the same mortgage calculator five times without feeling any clearer. That stress walks into the office every morning. Giving them somewhere to get a straight, honest answer is one of the most practical things you can do as an employer.
What good financial wellbeing support looks like
A lot of “financial wellbeing” on the market is really just a discount app. Those everyday savings are nice, but they do not help someone decide whether they can afford their first home, or whether their family would cope if they could not work. Genuinely useful support is led by regulated advice and clear guidance, so your people can act on real financial decisions, not just save a few pounds on shopping.
How the Feel Good Hub supports your team
The Feel Good Hub is built around exactly that. For one monthly subscription that you pay as the employer, your whole team gets access to real financial support, at no cost to them:
- •Financial advice and guidance, so your people have somewhere trusted to turn.
- •Mortgage advice for first-time buyers, movers, and those remortgaging, with the fee position for Hub members confirmed at sign-up.
- •Protection reviews covering life insurance, critical illness cover, and income protection.
- •Will writing for Hub members, and ongoing mortgage rate monitoring so no one overpays.
- •Everyday partner perks across wellbeing and lifestyle.
For larger teams, it can extend to workplace protection such as group income protection, which pays part of an employee’s salary if they cannot work long-term. The point is that it is led by qualified, regulated advice from a broker that has been looking after people since 2012, not by vouchers.
The benefits for your business
Offering the Hub is as much a business decision as a kind one:
- •It strengthens recruitment and retention, giving you a benefit that genuinely stands out.
- •It supports focus and attendance by helping people deal with the money worries that follow them to work.
- •It is low effort for you: most of the setup and the ongoing running sits with us, not your HR team.
- •It signals to your team that you take their wellbeing seriously, across financial, physical and emotional health.
How it works
There is no complicated rollout. Simply tell us about your team and what matters most to your people; we set up your Hub and help you launch it so everyone knows what they can access; and your team use the benefits whenever they need them, with us on hand throughout. It is designed to be simple for you and genuinely useful for them.
Why the Feel Good Hub is different
Many workplace benefits are really just discount codes. They are nice to have, but they do not help someone decide whether they can afford their first home or whether their family would cope financially if the worst happened. The Feel Good Hub is led by regulated financial advice, not vouchers. Feel Good Financial has been advising clients since 2012 and arranged £251,115,961 in mortgage lending in 2025, and that experience is what your team get access to.
