HR leaders have recognized that attracting talent is crucial for business success, which is why they devote themselves building up recruitment strategies that are innovative, and employee engagement strategies that help in boosting workforce performance. While, the whole year goes the same for HR professionals but during the time of festivals, they become all the way more alert in figuring out strategies to attract, engage and retain talent. The challenge is to drive productivity and retaining employees at the time when they are thinking about celebrations and planning time off from work.
Firstly, we must understand that there are three aspects to employee engagement:
1. Emotional: In this, employees devote their heart to the work and feel challenged as well as, encouraged throughout their work span.
2. Physical: Employees invest much energy to get their tasks/projects done.
3. Cognitive: In this, employees forget everything else and only engross themselves into work with or without enthusiasm.
The question is, no matter how hardworking the employees might be, how can HR leaders develop an employee engagement that drives them to work and enjoy during the festive season?
We have enrolled some of the natural ways to ramp up employee performanceand drive employee engagement;
1. Knowing employees’ needs
During the festive season, a majority of employees plan their holidays or do not feel like working with the same stress they hold the rest of the year. At that juncture, employers can consider employees’ working preferences and allow them to take up tasks or projects, which do not affect their work-life balance.Encourage them with flexible timings so that they can work and plan their time with a sense of liberty. Employees whose hometowns are far off could be permitted to work from home as and when they are available too. Developing such employee engagement strategies is more likely to attract talent and retain it for a longer haul.
