Hi Seniors,
I have recently joined a pharmaceutical company as Executive HR for QC department .I have planned to conduct some Employee Engagement activities for these employees.
However, I have worked for an IT company earlier, where the work culture is completely different. Hence I don't have much idea on what kind of team building and motivating activities I can conduct in a pharmaceutical company for QC department.
Kindly suggest me some ideas on what kind of activities would suit the pharmaceutical industry and specifically for the QC department.
Thanks in advance.

Dear friends,
My replies are as below:
For Durgesh: - You have given list of the points that make the employees happy. Nevertheless, what is important to business is productivity of the employee. Happy employee may not be productive employee. Yes employee happiness is important, but that is not all.
For Tejashree: - Queries on the subject of employee engagement often get repeated. I have given my long reply on this subject. You may go through the following link to refer it:

Most of the HR professionals believe that few games will engage the employee. However, it is a complete myth. Since the tangible benefits of the games are not measured, the myth stays without getting debunked.
Thanks,
