A Few Perks Your Employees Appreciate

By Jansen Wilhelmsen


While you certainly appreciate your employees and their hours of service, these days it's hard to afford lavish perks such as big bonus checks or perhaps raising their pay. However, it's nice to be able to offer concrete ways to showcase your appreciation when your workers are doing a good job. If you don't have a bunch of extra cash but want to inspire employees and boost morale, here are some tips to consider.

If you are having a monthly or weekly staff meeting, providing food is always a great idea. It can be as simple as some muffins or doughnuts and coffee and juice, or you can opt for a catered lunch with sandwiches and salads. You could even create a theme lunch for each meeting, such as an outdoor picnic or a Mexican fiesta with a taco bar. Even just purchasing a bunch of pizzas and offering sodas, water and iced tea can be a nice diversion.

If you can stock a few snacks and beverages in the staff kitchen or break area, this is always much appreciated by employees. You could have fresh coffee made throughout the day or install a coffee maker that makes individual cups of coffee. Bottled water or a cooler with hot and cold filtered water also can be available, as well as tea, sodas, fruit, pretzels, granola bars and other quick snacks. You can even take suggestions about what type of snacks people prefer.

People spend a huge amount of time at work which means that many chores must be accomplished during the employee's scant leisure time. Offering a few helpful services can be much appreciated. This might mean you hire someone to come in and wash employee cars or perhaps offer an at-work oil change service. You could even offer vouchers or discounts with a local home cleaning company or provide gift cards for local restaurants so that employees can grab dinner on the way home.

If your business is the type where employees work on weekends or perhaps late at night, one bonus item you could consider is having a television with DirecTV placed in a break area or a conference room. Your employees are sure to appreciate having DirecTV on hand, especially if they are working long hours. Just taking a few minutes to watch a basketball game or another sporting event can be a nice way to take a break and relax before getting back to work.

Installing DirecTV is not only something that your employees will appreciate; it's an inexpensive perk for you to offer. A typical DirecTV business account will include more than 120 channels including a huge variety of sports and news channels. Integra Systems can install DirecTV throughout your office wherever it is needed, such as the conference room or perhaps a waiting area for your customers. In addition, Integra Systems also is an authorized reseller for Status Solutions which provides monitoring of your fire panels, HVAC and other systems.
