Employee Appreciation Day: Appreciate People For Who They Are, Not Just What They Do
March 3 is Employee Appreciation Day. This day is often seen as an opportunity to boost and showcase a company’s culture.

Forbes shares some strategies.
Say ‘thank you’ 35 times a year – or get ready to lose your top employees
Employee recognition is no longer a ‘nice to have’, it’s an organizational necessity. Employers need to up their game when it comes to authentic rewards and recognition. Or else, they will risk losing out on top talents. Recognition plays a powerful role to strengthen workplace culture and retention. It means the everyday experience received from peers and leaders. Evidence indicates that receiving 35 recognitions across nonfinancial, monetary, and businesswide achievements boosts employee integration. For recognition to be effective, it needs to be practiced by employees across all level of seniority. Human Resources Director explains more.

Recognition is a simple yet effective way to keep employees from quitting
Companies that have employee recognition as a priority see their employees 56% less likely to be looking for new job opportunities. Offering higher salaries, bonuses for referrals, flexible work arrangements, and fun activities in the office are just some strategies to hire and retain talents in the current hot market. To build a sustainable culture, you would need to offer employees gratitude, praise, and appreciation in a way that feels genuine and consistent. This may sound very simple and obvious but a study of employees in the U.S., U.K. and Ireland shows that many companies aren’t prioritizing recognition as a retention or engagement tool.
