In researching the topic of employee appreciation, I chuckled when I read that there is an Employee Appreciation Day – a single day in the year to celebrate the important, tireless and impactful contribution that employees make to successful businesses each and every day.Saying thanks or recognising the contributions made by team members should be something we all do each and every day. Like brushing one's teeth helps avoid costly, painful and time-consuming trips to the dentist, recognising the contributions of your valued team members will avoid the need to search for new ones and will keep your current ones happy and engaged. The stats tell us that over 55% [1] of employees say that a lack of recognition was the top culprit for switching jobs. Don’t be complacent – start recognising your people today. Doesn’t need to be a grand gesture, a simple thank you or handwritten note will suffice. Rewarding staff with small gifts is also effective. If you run a recognition program at your work consider an Acuratore gift card. Your team members will be grateful (https://acuratore.com)
