When asked what causes them the most stress in their lives\, nearly twice as many say financial matters as opposed to job stress.\n\nBeing distracted by personal financial issues results in lower productivity when they are at work. In fact\, it is estimated to be costing business around $47 billion/year. We have a critical gap in our education system where we don't learn about managing our finances.\n\nLearn about how simple it is to incorporate financial wellness as a key benefit for your staff.\n\nPresented by Conrad Voss\, Stream Financial\n\n\n\n\n\nDomestic Violence\n\nA survey of domestic violence data in Australia revealed that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 5 men have experienced at least one incident of violence from a current or former partner since the age of 15. Between 2014 and 2015 2\,800 women and 560 men were hospitalised after being assaulted by a spouse or partner.\n\nThe Fair Work Act now includes an entitlement to unpaid family and domestic violence leave as part of the National Employment Standards (NES).
