4 Amenities That Can Help Your Employees Succeed

Posted on January 3, 2020 by Aaron

The job of managing employees is not easy. It’s true that you need to look out for underperformers to keep your business efficient and profitable. However, not all of your management decisions can involve negative reinforcement. Today’s job market is very competitive. You need to look for ways to incentivize top talent and high performing employees to stick with your company instead of leaving for your competitors. One way you can do this is by providing the right amenities.

Daycare

You need to keep in mind that work is not and should not be the most important thing in a person’s life. Family is always more important. If you want to retain employees, you need to make it apparent that you have this understanding. One way to do this is to provide daycare services for the children of your workers. This way, they won’t have to worry that their children will be left alone at home because they have to work during the day.

Free Cell Phone Service

If your employees have to do some of their work like sales and networking over the phone, you should consider offering a company cell service plan free of charge. In today’s smart phone powered world, doing so is actually a better idea than forcing your employees to use your company’s landlines. Work with a provider to come up with a good plan. Also consider purchasing a cell phone signal booster to ensure that your office has good coverage.

Free Lunch

Food is always a good incentive for human beings. If your employees have to stay on site during their lunch break, certainly consider offering them lunch on the company dime. Proper nutrition of course creates more productive and happier employees. If you have a large enough workforce, you may even want to open a cafeteria on company grounds.

A Company Gym

Another idea you might want to consider is opening a gym that can be used exclusively by employees. One thing many people do directly after work is hit the gym to make sure they stay in shape. If you don’t want to invest in creating a company gym, you could alternatively provide free memberships to one close by. It will help attract employees who value their physical fitness.

Today’s job market is more competitive than ever before. Many sought after candidates demand a lot of perks from their employers. If you don’t offer any valued amenities to employees, you may end up losing a lot of those workers to companies that do.
