Toronto, ON - October 20, 2003 The public knows it. The stress and wellness experts know it. And financial planners know it. Money concerns can be a major source of stress. According to a recent survey conducted by Financial Planners Standards Council (FPSC), seventy five per cent of adult Canadians said good financial planning is very important to their future well-being.
October 20-26 is Workplace Wellness Week (www.nqi.ca/chww/), a good time for employees and their employers to consider the importance of financial fitness on one's well-being.
