How Owens & Minor Strengthens Employee Financial Well-Being

From earned wage access to ongoing tax support, OneSource Virtual is a critical partner for the medical supply company.

“I’ve heard a couple of different variations where it’s really saved the day for some of our teammates. And that makes me feel good about our decision to move forward with the benefit.”

Jennifer Gibson, Director of Global Payroll, Owens & Minor

Priceless support for the whole organization

Financial stress starts with employees but doesn’t end there. Employers feel its impact in lost productivity, absenteeism, and turnover. Earned wage access (EWA) can help employees by providing them greater flexibility and control over wages they've already earned. This means fewer financial emergencies turning into bigger problems.

When Owens & Minor decided to offer EWA, not everyone was sure what it was or how it would help them. But the impact has been hard to miss. Some employees have even called it a “life-saver,” according to Jennifer Gibson, the medical supply company's director of global payroll.

Beyond EWA, Jennifer also has monthly check-ins with her OSV tax accountant. Together, these services make the partnership priceless.
