How Can We Creatively Reward Employees with Awards Beyond Just Trophies?

I want to start a series of Employee Awards in my company. What kind of awards can we give to employees, such as certificates, trophies, cash prizes, etc.? Please tell me more about how we can reward employees.

Hi Wyasser,

You can display the picture of the employee on the bulletin board, highlighting his achievement, and label it as "Best Employee of the Year" or "Employee of the Month."

You can present him with an award at a gathering or a company function in front of everyone, providing him with enough satisfaction and recognition.

Hi Wyasser,

Perhaps you can categorize awards such as performance-based rewards, longevity/loyalty awards, etc. Company culture also affects the kind of rewards/awards provided by the company, so you might want to consider this as well.

As for the kind of award, it also depends on the budget, but you can vary rewards to monetary/non-monetary kinds. Nisha's suggestion is a good way of giving recognition to employees without hurting the company budget too much.

Good luck on your planning for a Rewards & Recognition program!
