A lot of HR executives and employee representation groups talk about the benefits and advantages of giving killer perks to employees. This is because, according to a recent research, it has been found out that more than 80 percent employees out there care more about the perks they get than their actual salary.

This being said, it is imperative that you offer substantial perks to land the best talent in town. While employees take all perks graciously, there are some perks that they will eagerly greet with their arms open. Here we take a look at some of the perks that aren’t really common currently, but are loved by employees.

 

Free Food

Although, all of us as know that we need to buy food for survival, for some odd reason, it just seems terrible to spend so much money on food. This feeling can be felt when you are at your workplace and don’t feel like buying food for obvious reasons. Thus, one perk that a workplace can offer is provide free food to its employee. This free food will go a long way in making workers appreciate their employer and will also help set a new standard for motivation.

New Gadget

In this world of technology, every worker has a computer or a laptop given to them to make their working routine easier. Now, nobody would want to start their new job with a 5-year old stained laptop or PC that has suffered the strains of times. The laptop might be stained with the palm grease of someone else and may have a super-slow processor. Considering the repercussions of a below-par gadget, it is necessary that you, as an employer, get your employees new gadgets on their arrival.

Flexible Schedules

More than 70 percent of all employees feel that the ability to work at flexible hours is the perk they crave. Since many employees have other responsibilities hovering on their shoulders, a flexible work shift can be a defining perk. This perk may give them the opportunity to work according to their schedule and get the things that are expected from them, done in time.

Free Health Insurance

Although healthcare costs in the U.S. are on the increase, employees within the States believe that their employers should look after their healthcare and insurance. A recent research found out the following information:

  • More than 15 percent employees believe that their employers should cover all insurance costs.
  • More than 55% employees believe that their employers should look after 80 percent of their inflated healthcare costs.
