One of the biggest costs a company can incur is the cost that comes through Turnover.  There is the cost of the disengaged and often unproductive employee, the cost and time of finding a replacement and the cost of onboarding the employee.  Employee recognition can go a long way to reduce this Turnover.

 

According to the Center for American Progress, the average cost of losing an employee is 21% of that person’s annual salary.  Companies often look to payroll or advertising budgets when they need to cut costs.  What about the cost of a disengaged employee?  This is a cost that should not be overlooked.

 

When employees feel that their hard work is being recognized and that they are valued, engagement levels increase dramatically.

 

There is no one best way to recognize an employee, as every employee gets motivated by different means.  Companies who have the best programs have done so by modeling it after what their employees want.

 

How do they know?  By asking them.

 

One of the benefits of having a strong recognition culture, is that employees often thrive in this environment.
