Improve productivity with happy
employees
Happy employees can have a positive
impact on your operations, customer support, and profit level. Here are
suggestions for keeping your workforce upbeat.
Lead by example. Demonstrate the personal discipline and commitment
you hope to instill in your workers by showing up every day with a positive
attitude.
Emphasize the link between attendance and productivity. Absenteeism
is a symptom of unhappy employees. Help your employees understand the
importance of the role they play in the success of the business.
Learn what motivates your employees. Conduct an online survey to
learn if money, recognition, promotion, or time off drives your employees.
Enrich skillsets. Cross-training and job rotation can improve
appreciation for overall business operations and mitigate boredom and
dissatisfaction.
Create a time-off bank. Modify the traditional offering of
vacation, personal, and sick days. Give your employees the responsibility and
ability to balance work and home obligations by empowering them to manage total
available paid time off.
Other suggestions for a healthy
working environment and happy employees include celebrations and team building.
While these "soft" methods may seem a distraction from everyday
business, your employees will appreciate the effort and your business will
profit from the resulting improvements in performance.
