  • (1888PressRelease) September 15, 2021 - The COVID-19 has walked us through many unique challenges in managing employee engagement and work culture.

    As we transition to a post-pandemic environment, employees return to the workplace and adapt to revised remote work schedules. The pandemic has disrupted the workplace. It has birthed a "new normal" that will see employees expecting more from their employers and demanding more benefits to shield them from the pandemic stress.

    According to Achievers Workforce Institute survey, 40% of respondents claimed they don't feel appreciated for the work they've done, with one in three employees reporting not having received any recognition for their efforts within the last three months.

    Improving your team performance with an employee recognition strategy can play an essential role in retaining these employees. You want to keep the employees modeling the behaviors your company needs to recover and thrive in a post-COVID-19 era. Recognition can help make an employee understand and trust that they matter to the business and are vital to the company's recovery and its future success.

    If creating an employee recognition program to enhance employee loyalty, you need the ideas to motivate employees and create a concrete program. So, how does one do it?

    The first thing is to acknowledge the very fact that having employee recognition programs, or employee loyalty programs, may be a step in the right direction. Here's an outline in developing employee recognition programs: 

    Have a vision of employee loyalty, or does one want to pay particular attention to a selected department? You would like a transparent understanding of why you wish and need this program in situ before you ever begin.

    Gather feedback from your employees without knowing what motivates them in the first place. Take the temperature of your organization to grasp what people value, keep an eye fixed out for any commonalities, and take care that every one of your employees feels heard.
     
    Develop Objectives that are important for your organization. It may well be supported performance, development and will be both role and department-specific. Recognition programs should be broad in scope. The benefits must be available to everyone. Excluding specific employees or groups from a project might have a detrimental impact on performance.

    Please do not take too long to thank someone for their hard effort. The optimum time to say "thank you," "congratulations," or "job well done" is right now, so the employee can correlate the praise with the specific behaviors that led to an outstanding performance.
