BambooHR CFO Justin Judd advises HR leaders to make a strong business case when pitching new wellness programs to finance executives.

Our Reading
The numbers tell one story.
Justin Judd wants to see the business case behind new wellness programs. HR leaders need to show measurable returns and justify the investment. BambooHR’s “Paid Paid Vacation” program has resonated with Judd, as it helps the company stand out in a competitive job market.
Judd’s approach is a classic example of how finance leaders think: “If a wellness benefit is working, it should help the business, too.”
This reframes the situation: HR leaders are not just advocating for employee happiness, they are making a business pitch.
