Simon Sinek once said “There are only two ways to influence human behavior: you can manipulate it or you can inspire it.”

Creating an incentive plan for your company can benefit you and your team. It’s a double edged sword!

While some of the advantages vary from company to company, many companies experience financial and emotional benefits on a long-term basis.

• Reduced turnover due to a significant decrease in employee discontent.
• Productivity stellar. We can vouch for this!
• Superior moral employee. Who doesn’t like to be rewarded for doing what they are doing?
• Wellness improvement, especially if health and wellness incentives are offered.
• The team work of the friendly office encourages cooperation and cooperation as many incentives.
• Improved reputation, the positive attitude of employees to the brand.

We have implemented a range of reward and recognition initiatives in recognition of our employees’ efforts to exceed our customers’ expectations and to be outstanding Team players.

The following are:

1. Living Our Values, Outstanding Performance and Initiative

• Commendation Certificates

Upon receipt from a customer of a commendation for service, the team member will receive a ‘Commendation Certificate’. Commendation certificates can also be issued by any team member.

• Rockstar of the Quarter

All staff will be invited to provide any nominations for the ‘Rockstar of the Quarter’. All staff are eligible to be nominated. Nominations should be made directly in line with our Values. Winners will be given a certificate and a $100 gift card. This will be awarded quarterly.

• Innovation Award

Have you got an idea about how the business may do something better? If you have a suggestion about a change of process, procedure or introduction of something new that may result in an increase to the Company’s overall profit (or cost reduction) and the initiative is accepted and implemented by the Company, you may be eligible to receive this award. All staff are invited to submit an initiative at any time.
