LearnLux and Messer Construction Celebrate Five Years of Financial Wellbeing Partnership

Celebrating Financial Wellbeing: A Five-Year Milestone

LearnLux, a top provider of workplace financial wellbeing solutions, is thrilled to commemorate the fifth anniversary of its partnership with Messer Construction Co., a well-respected general contractor based in Cincinnati. Since 2020, this collaboration has significantly enhanced the financial health of employees at Messer across six states in the Midwest and Southeast.

Messer Construction exemplifies a progressive approach to employee welfare, viewing its workers as the core of their operation. Nick Apanius, Senior Vice President at Messer, emphasizes their commitment not just to physical safety, but also to the financial wellbeing of their employees. With LearnLux, they provide impartial and personalized financial guidance, ensuring that every member of their workforce is well-equipped to navigate their financial future.

The LearnLux program is unique as it combines digital education with the opportunity for personalized guidance from Certified Financial Planner® professionals. Over the past five years, this approach has proven effective in engaging various types of workers, from skilled tradespeople to office staff, allowing them to access valuable support anywhere, whether it's on-site, at home, or while commuting. Topics covered in the program range from budgeting and debt management to retirement planning. It also includes tailored information related to Messer’s specific employee benefits, such as their retirement plans and employee stock ownership initiatives.

Feedback from employees who utilize LearnLux has been overwhelmingly positive, indicating reductions in stress levels and enhanced financial clarity. This shift not only benefits the employees but also bolsters Messer’s overall organizational health, resulting in greater benefit engagement and safer work environments. Research highlights that financial stress can contribute to detrimental factors such as fatigue and decreased focus which, in turn, can increase workplace injury risks. By addressing financial wellbeing proactively, Messer demonstrates its leadership and dedication to employee care and safety.

Employees at Messer have voiced their appreciation for the LearnLux program as well. Alyssa Powell, an Accounting Associate, stated, “I always recommend LearnLux to coworkers. It's easy to use, completely free, and actually helps you understand your money.”

As LearnLux celebrates its fifth year in partnership with Messer Construction, it becomes a noteworthy example of how employers can effectively support their teams in a holistic manner. Rebecca Liebman, CEO of LearnLux, comments on this achievement, stating that Messer sets a groundbreaking standard in the construction sector by prioritizing financial wellbeing as an integral part of workplace safety and productivity.
