Cash Isn’t Only Reward
Rhonda Abrams at Gannett News Service:
Employees are people, too. While that may appear obvious, some employers seem to treat their employees as disposable objects — easy to get, easy to discard, easy to replace.
Well, employees aren’t disposable. Sure, sometimes you have to fire someone who isn’t working out, and other times you’re going to have to lay someone off when the business no longer can sustain him or her. But if you have a lot of employee turnover, you’re wasting valuable time — and resources.
That’s why it’s critical to nurture and reward your employees. But that can be expensive. You may not be able to give raises as quickly as you or your employees would like or deserve.
Fortunately, over the years, I’ve come up with a number of fun or meaningful ways to reward employees that don’t cost a lot of money:
- Birthdays.
- Well days.
- Employee of the Week.
- Extra time off.
