in understanding employee satisfaction in the workplace; provides for levels of accountability

with lower turnover and higher job performance

Acknowledging employee achievements/ recognition

 Workplace recognition motivates, provides a sense of accomplishment and makes employees feel valued for their work.  Recognition not only boosts individual employee engagement, but it also has been found to increase productivity and loyalty to the company, leading to higher retention.  Acknowledging employees' best work can be a low-cost endeavor -

  • it can be as small as a personal note or a thank-you card. But the

key is to know what makes it meaningful and memorable for the employee, and who is doing the recognizing. ~ Gallup June 2016
