Can we all just agree that 2020 was a disappointment? Starting from the devastating and deadly bushfires in Australia to a global pandemic that shook the social and financial aspects of how we live, 2020 hasn’t been kind on anyone.
Keeping this in mind, it is fair for us to look forward to what 2021 has to offer. With news of vaccinations and high efficiency rates making rounds, there’s a decent chance that 2021 would see a return to social normalcy. The world will be back to they way it was before this global pandemic and organizations will return to their full operations and workforce capabilities.
Keeping in mind the disappointments of the year, organizations have to set their perks for next year with careful consideration. In this article we take a look at some of the best perks you can offer to your employees in 2021.
Employee Discounts and Rewards
Employees today are looking for more than just a paycheck with some zeros on it. They want to work in an organization that elevates their lifestyle and helps consume different services and products that they would otherwise think twice before using.
An employee discounts and rewards scheme can work here as it allows employees to procure and use the services they love without feeling guilty about it. The entire experience is bound to be a successful one and will help keep your team members happy.
Care and Recognition Gifts
Work from home was nothing short of a struggle. All kind of physical contact between organizations and employees was cut down and the virtual world just wouldn’t live up to that expectation.
A good way to welcome employees back to normalcy would be through care and recognition gifts on a monthly basis. Even if you’re working from home through much of 2021, make sure that employees receive an occasional gift at home. This will set the mood straight and will help satisfy them.
Quarterly Events
Aren’t we all just starved for social events? Employees have been stuck at home for much of 2020, and a good way to welcome 2021 and return to normalcy would be through quarterly events. Gather the team, head on over to a picnic and repeat it four times during the year. Make up for all the time lost this year and ensure that your team has a grand time picnicking. For starters, you can ask team members to see the spots they would like to visit or tour.
