10 Reasons You Need to Care About Employee Appreciation

10 Reasons You Need to Care About Employee Appreciation

In today’s work climate, employee appreciation is often seen as a want rather than a need. Instead of prioritizing recognition in the workplace, it’s often pushed aside and drowned out among all the daily tasks and priorities of a hustling and bustling business. But here’s the thing – employee appreciation is much more than a want. Data has shown time and time again that it’s absolutely essential for a thriving culture that produces incredible results.

Don’t believe me? That’s fine for now, but I think you will once you see all the hard-hitting data points below!

10 Statistics That Prove Employee Appreciation is a Need – Not a Want

As proven in the data, employee appreciation helps improve engagement and retention while reducing feelings of burnout. An added bonus? These benefits add up to more money in the pockets of a business by decreasing turnover expenses and producing positive cultures that ultimately lead to better work being done. It’s a win-win – a win for employees and a win for business.

So what are you waiting for? It’s time to get appreciating, and it doesn’t have to be extravagant or difficult. In fact, employee appreciation is made easy when you’re looking in the right places. Whether you leave a hand-written note, type up a quick email, or give a small gift of gratitude, small moments of recognition can carry great impact.
