Most employees want to feel appreciated and that their hard work ad loyalty has not gone unnoticed. Many employers believe that a ‘thankyou’ must always come with a large reward, however whilst rewards undoubtedly have their place; many employees find it engaging to simply know that their employer values their efforts. In tough economic times, it is also not always practical to provide tangible rewards.

It is important to remember that each employee is unique and motivated by different things, however employees are not likely to remain loyal to a business that does not show their appreciation. This can also have a positive impact as it reinforces the actions and behaviours that the organisation would like to see more of.
