– those going thru rough financial patch because of COVID-19
OUTLIERS Zone, a relatively young company that specialises in wellness and financial matters, is looking to help those persons going through some sort of economic situation because of the stress associated with dealing with the coronavirus.
Banking on its wealth of experience in providing financial growth training to employees and entrepreneurs, Outliers reasons that given that the mental impact of reduced income is far-reaching, the sessions are intended to be done virtually, and will be facilitated by its well-trained staff.
To test the efficacy of their programme, Outliers conducted what it calls “an informal study” with 200 employees and employers from within the public and private sectors whose companies are engaged in small to medium-scale business in Region Four (Demerara-Mahaica).
The study was done between April and May 2020 to see what impact COVID-19 has on their proposed clientele.
And what they found was that in most cases, the epidemic tended to have the most impact on the personal finances of both employees and employers.
According to Outliers Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Athalyah Yisrael, companies can derive massive benefits from providing employees financial training during this time.
The company is also in the process of creating a financial plan to address reduced or ceased income, along with integral information to aid in smart choices for the remainder of this crisis; and choices to recover faster.
Outliers also posits that when employees are less financially troubled, they are physically and mentally healthier, more productive, loyal, and less likely to steal or contemplate suicide.
