Achieving Ultimate Employee Satisfaction In The Workplace in 2020 and Beyond

7/6/2020

Achieving satisfaction amongst your employees in the workplace requires a special approach that you’re going to need to keep up in the long term. Employee satisfaction impacts everything, from your client happiness to your employee turnover. If your team is not satisfied, clients will know about it. If your team is not satisfied you will need to spend more time and money interviewing, hiring, and training new team members. It makes sense to keep your team happy once you have them. 

Here are a few ways you can work towards ultimate employee satisfaction this year and beyond. 

  • Be More Flexible
Being more flexible is key. This year has thrown many challenges at every single one of us, so if we’ve learned anything, it’s that being flexible is key. Many businesses have been forced to operate on a more flexible basis, when many didn’t think it was possible before. Now that this has been debunked, your business should work on ways to give your employees a more flexible lifestyle. Can they choose their own hours? Can they work from home when they need to? 

  • Promote Good Health 
Good health means that your team will be happier and take fewer sick days. Promoting good health will impact physical and mental health and will always be good for your business. You can promote good health by coming up with schemes, such as a cycle to work scheme. You could even offer bonuses, such as gym memberships. Certain companies in Europe offer more time off to employees who use their gym memberships regularly. 

  • Stop Wasting Time
If you’re still wasting time with meetings, you’re likely annoying your team. Finding ways to reduce wasted time is key, and avoiding pointless meetings can help. Try collaboration software instead, and only have a meeting if you truly need one.

  • Give Them More Incentives And Benefits 
Your team deserves more than the bare minimum. Give them more incentives and benefits to keep them happily working for you. Could you buy their lunch once a week? Keep a stock of great, healthy snacks to hand? Paying them on time is something you should be doing anyway, but you can make it even more effective with services like Cloudpay. Finding ways to make their lives easier and more enjoyable at work is key. You could even build a relax/gaming area for when they need some time away from their desks. 

  • Improve Social Connection
Don’t discourage your team from communicating with one another. This isn't school! Instead, improve social connection by encouraging catch ups and sharing ideas. Arrange days out and bonding activities, too. 

  • Invest In Team Building
Team building can also be effective. You could try laugh yoga and other workshops designed to get everybody bonding and enjoying themselves. 

  • Look After The Work Environment
Don’t make your staff take care of housekeeping issues. Hire cleaners to look after the work environment and keep it healthy. Your staff should clean up after themselves, of course, but it shouldn’t be down to them to deep clean the carpets and surfaces.
