If you\u2019re not aware, it\u2019s time to add it to your calendar, and don\u2019t forget to make it a recurring event! Employee Appreciation Day falls on the first Friday of March every year, so that&#8217;s 1st March this year.\n\nIf there\u2019s one thing we know about Singaporean work culture, it\u2019s that we don\u2019t give praise and recognition generously enough. When was the last time you told your peer or your direct report that they\u2019re doing a good job and that you appreciate them? Conversely, when was the last time you received a compliment from your colleagues or your manager?\n\nThis needs to change \u2014 making employees feel appreciated can go a long way. As such, in light of Employee Appreciation Day, we&#8217;d like to emphasise on how important <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/reward-and-recognition-guide\/\">reward and recognition<\/a> is in the workplace, share some best practices on how employers can leverage recognition to shape company culture, and demonstrate how you can tie it in nicely with your company values.\n\nEmployee appreciation matters. Let\u2019s get started.\n<h2 id=\"why-is-it-important-for-the-leadership-team-to-show-their-appreciation-on-national-employee-appreciation-day\">Why is it important for the leadership team to show their appreciation on National Employee Appreciation Day?<\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18104\" height=\"289\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/giphy-35.gif\" width=\"340\"\/>\n\nEmployee Appreciation Day provides a timely opportunity for the leadership team to be more intentional with their words and actions, and focus on acknowledging and celebrating the hard work and dedication of their employees.\n\nHowever, it\u2019s not just about celebrating one day out of the year and getting it over and done with. Showing appreciation should be ingrained in your work culture, where positive feedback and public recognition is encouraged and done regularly. Doing so leads to many benefits, such as:\n<h3 id=\"boosting-employee-morale-and-productivity\">Boosting employee morale and productivity<\/h3>\nRecognition and appreciation are powerful morale boosters. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apa.org\/news\/press\/releases\/2012\/03\/well-being\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">When employees feel valued<\/a>, they are more likely to be motivated, engaged, and satisfied in their work. This positive energy can have a cascading effect on team dynamics and the overall workplace atmosphere.\n\nAppreciated employees also <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2020\/01\/the-little-things-that-make-employees-feel-appreciated#:~:text=Adam%20Grant%20and%20Francesca%20Gino,colleagues%20respect%20and%20appreciate%20them.\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">tend to be more productive<\/a>. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glassdoor.com\/blog\/employers-to-retain-half-of-their-employees-longer-if-bosses-showed-more-appreciation-glassdoor-survey\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">study by Glassdoor<\/a> found that 81% of employees surveyed felt motivated to work harder when their boss showed appreciation. When individuals feel that their hard work is recognised and valued, they are likely to be more committed to their tasks, leading to increased productivity and efficiency.\n<h3 id=\"enhancing-employee-engagement-and-retention\">Enhancing employee engagement and retention<\/h3>\nDid you know that employees who receive great recognition are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/analytics\/472658\/workplace-recognition-research.aspx\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">20 times more likely<\/a> to be engaged as compared to employees who receive poor recognition?\n\nEverybody likes to be recognised for a job well done, but according to our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/talent-insights-report\/\">Talent Insights Report for Singapore<\/a>, many employees feel like they aren\u2019t being appreciated. Not only was \u2018a lack of reward and recognition\u2019 a top reason for seeking a new role in another business, 21% of employees would be encouraged to stay in their role should their business establish a better <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/blog\/employee-recognition-program\/\">reward and recognition program<\/a>. If you needed any more proof, a further 32% would consider taking a role elsewhere, should the other business have a better reward and recognition program.\n\nRecognising and appreciating employees contributes to higher levels of job satisfaction and loyalty. When employees feel appreciated, they are less likely to seek opportunities elsewhere, <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/reduce-staff-turnover\/\">reducing turnover<\/a> and the associated costs of recruitment and training. These findings speak volumes about how important recognition is for <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/employee-engagement-guide\/\">employee engagement<\/a> and retention. If you aren\u2019t putting in effort to recognise your employees, they\u2019ll move on to greener pastures.\n<h3 id=\"fostering-a-positive-work-culture\">Fostering a positive work culture<\/h3>\nDemonstrating appreciation on Employee Appreciation Day contributes to building a positive company culture. When leadership demonstrates a commitment to recognising and appreciating employees, it sets a good example for the rest of the organisation. This creates a culture of gratitude and appreciation at all levels, facilitating a harmonious and collaborative work environment.\n<h3 id=\"improving-employee-wellbeing\">Improving employee wellbeing<\/h3>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.corporatewellnessmagazine.com\/article\/the-role-of-employee-recognition-in-workplace-wellnes#\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Research has shown that<\/a> when employees receive genuine recognition, their brain releases oxytocin, which is associated with trust, social bonding, and happiness. This leads to a cascade of positive effects on the individual and their job performance as a whole. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/analytics\/472658\/workplace-recognition-research.aspx\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gallup\u2019s report<\/a> also revealed that employees who strongly agree that recognition is an important part of their organisation\u2019s culture are half as likely to experience frequent burnout than those who do not.\n\nNeedless to say, feeling valued and appreciated at work has a positive impact on an employee&#8217;s well-being. Recognising their efforts will contribute to lower stress levels and higher job satisfaction, promoting a healthier work-life balance.\n<h3 id=\"strengthening-employee-manager-relationships\">Strengthening employee-manager relationships<\/h3>\nEmployee Appreciation Day provides leaders with an opportunity to connect with their teams on a deeper and more personal level. Expressing gratitude and acknowledging individual contributions helps build stronger relationships between employees and their managers, by fostering trust and mutual respect.\n<h3 id=\"encouraging-open-communication\">Encouraging open communication<\/h3>\nDemonstrating appreciation also fosters open communication between leadership and employees. When employees feel valued, they are more likely to share their ideas, concerns and feedback, contributing to a culture of transparency and open dialogue.\n<h2 id=\"our-top-employee-appreciation-day-ideas\">Our top Employee Appreciation Day ideas<\/h2>\nNow that you know all about the benefits of employee appreciation, what\u2019s next?

As part of Employee Appreciation Day, why not give your employees an extra day of leave?\n\nDoing so gives them the freedom to decide how they\u2019d like to spend it \u2014 they could be off volunteering, catching up on errands, spending time with loved ones, indulging in self-care activities or having fun on their hobbies. You\u2019ll be amazed at how far it can go in making them feel refreshed and recharged, after spending a full day tending to their personal lives.\n\n<strong>Make it remote-friendly:<\/strong> This works across both in-office and hybrid teams, so you don\u2019t have to worry!\n<h3 id=\"treat-everyone-to-delicious-food\">Treat everyone to delicious food<\/h3>\nWhat can we say? Singapore is a nation of foodies, and the way to your employees\u2019 hearts are certainly through their stomach. No one says no to delicious treats \u2014 so it\u2019s entirely up to your budget how you\u2019d like to show your appreciation. From high-end buffet meals to affordable treats like donuts, ice cream or coffee, gift your employees a surprise on Employee Appreciation Day and it\u2019ll be sure to put a huge smile on their faces.\n\n<strong>Make it remote-friendly:<\/strong> Send them a snack box full of goodies, or restaurant vouchers they can redeem at their convenience.\n<h3 id=\"tickets-for-events-attractions-concerts-or-activities-of-interest\">Tickets for events, attractions, concerts or activities of interest<\/h3>\nNothing excites people more than a cheap thrill, even more so when it\u2019s free! In recognition of their hard work, encourage employees to have a healthy work-life balance by gifting them free tickets to the latest movie, concert or exhibition on Employee Appreciation Day.\n\nLife is more than just about work \u2014 and sometimes, you never know what might spark their creativity. Giving them the opportunity to expose themselves to interesting ideas and concepts will enrich their lives and empower them to think more critically, translating to more well-rounded individuals at work.\n\n<strong>Make it remote-friendly:<\/strong> Get them e-tickets which can be sent straight to their emails for easy access.\n<h2 id=\"what-are-the-best-practices-for-employee-recognition\">What are the best practices for employee recognition?<\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"woman typing on her laptop and smiling\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18097\" height=\"1014\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image4.png\" width=\"1728\" srcset=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image4.png 1728w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image4-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image4-1024x601.png 1024w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image4-768x451.png 768w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image4-1536x901.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1728px) 100vw, 1728px\" \/>\n\nIt goes without saying that employee recognition isn\u2019t just about showering your employees with gifts and fancy words for a day. It extends beyond that \u2014 and to ensure you\u2019re doing right by your employees, we\u2019ve got a couple of tips to share that we believe you\u2019ll benefit from.\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/analytics\/472658\/workplace-recognition-research.aspx\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gallup and Workhuman<\/a> have identified five essential pillars which you should keep in mind when it comes to employee recognition. Their research has shown that recognition is most effective when it is:\n<ol>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Fulfilling \u2014 The amount of recognition that employees receive makes sense.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Authentic \u2014 It isn&#8217;t just a checklist thing.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Personalised \u2014 One size doesn&#8217;t fit all.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Equitable \u2014 It\u2019s given fairly, without playing favourites.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Embedded in company culture \u2014 It\u2019s integrated into the day-to-day.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nIn addition to these five key pillars, to maximise the impact of recognition in your organisation, there are four practical steps you need to take to transform your culture or protect the culture you have already built. They are:\n<ol>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Establishing your workplace culture goals and values in alignment with business strategy.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Using recognition to reflect your workplace culture goals and values.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Continuously evaluating and refining your recognition strategy.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Promoting quality recognition across your organisation so your culture can flourish.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nIn essence, employee recognition is a pivotal tool for <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/leaders-guide-company-culture\/\">building company culture<\/a>. A culture boosted by recognition can drive engagement and produce other tangible results across key business metrics such as customer loyalty, profitability, productivity, turnover and more. It\u2019s up to you to leverage the power of employee recognition, to transform and sustain the company culture that will propel your business forward and achieve its long-term goals.\n<h2 id=\"how-can-you-use-employee-recognition-to-reflect-your-company-culture-goals-and-values\">How can you use employee recognition to reflect your company culture goals and values?<\/h2>\nMany companies don\u2019t realise how important it is to use recognition as a tool, to bridge the gap between your company\u2019s values as ideals and making them tangible behaviours. When you\u2019ve established <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/how-to-create-company-values\/\">what your company values and goals are<\/a>, they need to be communicated clearly to the rest of the organisation, and get company-wide buy-in.\n\nRecognition helps by positively reinforcing how you want your culture to manifest in the day-to-day lives of your employees. Simply stating your company goals or values but doing nothing to reinforce them across the business will just lead to disinterest and apathy amongst your employees.\n\nInstead, when you recognise employees for exemplifying behaviours that your organisation aspires towards, you provide them with insight into what is expected of them, and encourage them to engage in similar behaviours in the future. In fact, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/analytics\/472658\/workplace-recognition-research.aspx\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gallup report<\/a> found that employees who say their recognition program is aligned with the values of their organisation are 4.9 times more likely to strongly agree that they know what is expected of them at work, compared to employees who feel that their recognition program is not aligned with the values of their organisation.\n\nRecognition also taps into and makes use of everyone\u2019s ability to learn socially \u2014 when an employee is publicly recognised for a certain behaviour, others are more likely to engage in that behaviour because they\u2019ve identified that your organisation values it.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"shoutouts linked to company values at 91爆料\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18096\" height=\"1014\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image5.png\" width=\"1728\" srcset=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image5.png 1728w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image5-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image5-1024x601.png 1024w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image5-768x451.png 768w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image5-1536x901.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1728px) 100vw, 1728px\" \/>\n\nFor example, here at 91爆料, our reward and recognition program is closely tied to our five core values, and it\u2019s a great way to acknowledge employees who have been exemplary in showcasing these behaviours. Not only does it help to reinforce our company core values, it also inspires and motivates everyone else to learn from our fellow peers and strive to embody the same values in our day-to-day work.\n<h2 id=\"make-every-day-an-employee-appreciation-day\">Make every day an employee appreciation day<\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18095\" height=\"1319\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image1.png\" width=\"1999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image1.png 1999w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image1-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image1-1024x676.png 1024w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image1-768x507.png 768w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/image1-1536x1013.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1999px) 100vw, 1999px\" \/>\n\nThat\u2019s right.
