Video recordings of all financial wellbeing webinars are now available on the LGIS website for members and their staff to view.

LGIS financial wellbeing webinars have been educating local government staff across a range of financial topics since August 2022.

Our team partnered with the Financial Counsellors' Association of WA to provide local government employees with a series of workshops as part of our health and wellbeing program.

With the rising cost of living and inflation rate touching a 30 year high in 2022, financial pressures can be a significant stress factor for some and their impact can spill over into personal and work life.

These workshops aimed to support people to build financial resilience by providing a range of tools and strategies to manage their money during challenging times.

These webinars also provided information on the support mechanisms available such as the national debt helpline, develop an understanding of how free financial counselling can help, and the importance of seeking assistance early.
