ROHNERT PARK, Calif., July 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- For many jobs, applicants are required to hold a college degree. However, college graduates bring more to the table than just a degree — they bring quality in work ethic and self-improvement practices that have been proven to directly benefit the companies they work for. But those extra qualities typically come at the high cost of student loans. Alltech Financial, a company that provides businesses student loan assistance benefits to employees and their families, understands the value of a college degree and provides companies with the tools to attract top-tier talent through student loan assistance benefits.
A college education focuses primarily on the academics necessary to earn a degree, but college graduates leave with more than that. Throughout their college experience, they learn how to learn. They learn how to complete difficult work under tight deadlines, effectively communicate with their peers, and run and organize a team to complete tasks. These invaluable tools continue after graduation as well. According to a study by the College Board in 2013, 56 percent of workers age 30–45 are in jobs requiring them to learn new things.
"College is all about studying and completing your core curriculum and developing the tools necessary to survive and thrive after graduation, but those newly acquired tools get buried under the stress that comes with student loan debt," said Chuck Gangnath, Vice President of Operations at Alltech Financial. "Many graduates are moving back home with their parents after graduation and taking the first job they can find just to cope with their debt. When given the chance, college-educated employees really shine in the workplace and provide tremendous value from the knowledge, skills and abilities they picked up by completing their college curriculum. At Alltech Financial, we help employees shine so their company can thrive."
The Rasmussen study also found that college-educated people are more satisfied with their work. They are more likely to make healthy lifestyle choices, including regularly exercising and not smoking. The study also shows how a college education increases confidence, social networks, communication, problem-solving skills and more.
Happy, healthy, satisfied and confident workers are more likely to stay with a company, but the stress from student loan debt may counteract everything these graduates have worked for. "That's why more and more companies are providing student loan assistance benefits to their employees," said Gangnath. "It's a win-win: employers get workers who are dedicated, happy and committed to the company, and employees get some help managing their student loans. What beats that?
"Alltech Financial knows the value of a workplace that minimizes stress and encourages learning," continues Gangnath. "We're happy to be able to help companies cultivate a workplace like that by offering their employees student loan assistance benefits that take their minds off their loans and back onto what's best for the company they work so hard for."
