Many Chicago businesses realize that a happy employee is
more productive, more loyal, and has better attendance and attitude than an
unhappy employee. Obviously, pay and rewarding work are important factors in an
employee’s happiness but sometimes the missing ingredient is just
acknowledgement for a job well done. At one progressive employer in Chicago,
there was a weekly acknowledgement of some employee’s contribution and it was
celebrated by an announcement to the whole work force and with a small reward.
These rewards were coveted by everyone, even though it wasn’t a monetary award.
Many of the best rewards were ones that an employee could
take home and enjoy with their family. Things like a restaurant coupon or
theater tickets were the simplest form but a custom gift basket
would have to be the best and most appreciated idea for a reward that I can
think of. Think of how nice corporate gift baskets
would be to bring home to share with the family. The best part for the employee
is explaining to the family it was for a job well done. Chicago themed
gift baskets are another outstanding choice as a reward. Any of these gift
basket ideas can be customized for a particular company, job, or functional
area, making them not only a great “perk” but seemingly the perfect nod to that
outstanding effort. Unique gift
baskets can be made to order and delivered weekly, if desired, right to
your company.
Wondering how to customize a gift basket for your employees?
Just contact the folks at www.thoughtfulpresence.com
and give them the general idea that you have and you will be delighted at what
they can put together for your special recognition award. Don’t wait to show
your best employees how much you value their contribution to your company’s
success.
