A sample of 37 employees from PT. Pegadaian CP Mega Legenda Batam was utilized. The research employed a saturated sample method, and validity and reliability tests were conducted for instrument trials. The findings indicate that financial knowledge exerts a positive and significant influence on financial behavior, while financial experience, income, and lifestyle do not individually impact financial behavior significantly.

These variables collectively account for 41.8% of the variance in financial behavior, with the remaining 58.2% attributed to unexamined factors. This study provides insights into the complex relationship between employee characteristics and financial behavior, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to enhance financial literacy and decision-making among employees, thereby fostering improved financial well-being. Highlights: Financial knowledge positively influences employee financial behavior. Financial experience, income, and lifestyle do not significantly affect financial behavior individually.
