Please consider this as only one source of information on this topic. The Aspen Institute Financial Security Program has published the 2022 Benefits Scorecard, a framework to assess the effectiveness of both public and private benefits in supporting workers’ financial security. The report analyzes 22 public and private benefits programs, evaluating their impact on four key indicators: dollar value, benefit delivery, access and use, and interactions with other benefits. It finds that most programs perform moderately well in helping workers today but need significant improvement to equitably support all workers. The Scorecard proposes a roadmap for improving the design and delivery of benefits to close critical gaps and enhance worker financial security.
