Financial Wellbeing for All Staff

With the continued pressures around the current cost of living squeeze, money is on many people’s minds right now, and having access to benefits and support that could make a real difference has never been more important. To support our colleagues’ financial and mental wellbeing, we have launched a new employee benefit called Salary Finance. 

  • Affordable loans repaid through salary which could be used to pay off expensive debts and avoid payday loans or credit cards. 
  • Advance earned pay: the ability to access some of your earned pay ahead of your regular payday. Make payday when you need it and avoid relying on overdrafts and credit cards. 
  • Simple savings: savings account with contributions transferred directly from your salary, helping you to save without the hassle. 
  • Help to Save: with this government-backed scheme, anyone receiving Working Tax Credit, Universal Credit or Child Tax Credit could earn bonus payments on their savings. Earn up to 50p for every £1 saved. 
  • Money insights: a range of tips and videos as well as tools for budgeting and saving to help make money simple. To find more about the financial support available to you via Salary Finance, visit: occ.salaryfinance.com or use the QR Code on the attached poster. To log in, you’ll simply need your name, date of birth and national insurance number. Action: More details are in the attached documents. 

Please print the documents and publish on schools notice boards / include in schools newsletters so that all staff have access. Please contact the HR Advice Desk (hradvicedesk@oxfordshire.gov.uk) if you have any queries or access issues.
