I read an article the other day on service awards, and if I’m being honest, it kind of ticked me off. The author starts out: “No worker has ever received an engraved plaque that read, ‘Thanks for keeping your seat warm for 10 years.’ Yet, that is the message employers send with awards for employees’ five, ten or 20-year anniversaries….” I’ve read a few posts and articles now picking up on a similar theme– questioning the value of recognition for service milestones.

A recent article by research firm Gallup, provided pretty clear direction on the “Five steps to fire a manager with a disengaged work group”. I remember that it created a little HR controversy when published, it was bold, and raised some very relevant points around the role, and expectations of a manager.

Did you know the Internal Revenue Service allows companies to deduct what you pay employees for recognition and wellness programs? Certain conditions and limitations apply, of course, but these benefits could save your company thousands.

Motivated and engaged employees are something all companies want. We all know that team building and spending money on employees can be a waste. They are ungrateful and the results remain the same, or even worse as they spend a week talking about how that last round of go-carting went. Employees should work, after all that is what they are paid for. You know, I kind of agree to a certain point.

Recognition and gratitude don’t often happen by accident. A clear plan for being more appreciative leads to greater sustained engagement and personal commitment.

My store manager implemented an embarrassing (and happily short-lived) safety incentive: Employees caught violating safety procedures were immediately given a two-foot rubber chicken on a string to wear around their necks–in front of customers. To get rid of the chicken, an employee needed to catch another employee behaving “unsafely”.
