The continuous support we provide, from enrolment in the group savings program through to retirement, is designed to promote employee well-being. We use clear, easy-to-understand tools and solutions every step of the way.
Communications
We show our group retirement savings plan members how important it is to save for the future, and we promote buy-in through a unique approach called
E3. Our plan member-focused approach:
-
Entices plan members to learn more about their plan and what it has to offer
-
Encourages them to use our planning and educational tools
-
Engages them to make sure they stay on track
You can round out this approach with our
E3nergy Modules, a business intelligence service unique to Desjardins. This module makes it possible to adapt the communication strategy as needed. It features:
- A behavioural engine that defines engagement levels based on interest, motivation and knowledge
- A dashboard that includes an engagement index and key performance indicators
- Communication tactics for each engagement level
