There has been a significant spike in the number of Canadian workers who are financially stressed, according to a new survey by the National Payroll Institute, which described its findings as a serious “financial storm” that is “far more intense than predicted.”
The 15th Annual National Payroll Institute's Survey of Working Canadians, which was conducted by the Financial Wellness Lab on behalf of the institute, found that the number of workers classified as being financially stressed jumped by 20 per cent over the past year, hitting 37 per cent overall.
"The frightening reality of this storm is that the contributing factors to financial stress are becoming more challenging than ever for Canadians to overcome," Peter Tzanetakis, president of the National Payroll Institute, said in a written statement. The report also found that about 30 per cent of the respondents who reported being financially stressed earned more than $100,000 per year.
“They are also unable to keep their growing stress from affecting those closest to them, with one in two sharing that their financial stress has been felt by the ones they love.”About 40 per cent of those in the financially stressed category said that they have been unable to prevent financial stress from “negatively affecting their performance on the job.”
