The Webinar will feature Ms. Sally Hass, Employee Benefits News “HR Educator of the Year” who has devoted a major portion of her career at Weyerhaeuser Company to creating and growing a comprehensive and innovative life-planning program as Weyerhaeuser’s employee pre-retirement training program.
Sally’s work was featured as part of the recent bestselling book by Lee Eisenberg, The Number, as the Best in Class for preparing employees for their retirement. He is amazed that this kind of “humanitarian relief program at a company like Weyerhaeuser” exists that “addresses emotional challenges as resolutely as it tackled pension calculations”.
Her program integrates all aspects of moving into retirement including financial planning, legal issues, leisure time and long term healthcare into a comprehensive education, training, and benefits program. A unique and forward-thinking program creates value in its ability to retain and attract key individuals and is predicted to become the standard in pre-retirement training as the war for talent continues to escalate throughout our country.
Sally will be presenting on how you can go about creating a similar service within your Company without having to wait for new line item budget resources, extra HR staff or high priced outside consultants. Weyerhaeuser’s Pre-retirement Training Program provides valuable information on how to integrate life-planning into your existing benefits education program.
Sally will be joined by Dan Cahn, a 20+ year HR veteran, founder and former CEO of WorkLife Solutions, Inc., and current Senior Vice President at LTC Financial Partners. Dan’s organization provides needs assessment and evaluation services for all sized companies interested in learning what financial benefits can be realized from a comprehensive pre-retirement training program.
Employers can help their employees prepare for the range of needs brought about due to our aging workforce. Isabel, Sally, and Dan will discuss strategies and responsibilities to provide the most financially viable and effective means to educate employees on how to proactively plan for their post-employment futures.
