These are benefits in which all companies, regardless of size, should be willing to invest, not just the Googles and Amazons of the world.

Research indicates that motivation is one of the key drivers of employee productivity in business. Unmotivated workers can produce sub-standard work, leave abruptly, causing staff shortages, and neglect deadlines. They can also affect your overall workplace culture, leading to more unmotivated and unproductive employees. As a business owner, it’s therefore highly important to work to prevent your workers from becoming unmotivated. This can be difficult, however, given that many of us are still working from home, due to the pandemic. This can make socialising and interacting with your colleagues substantially harder. Homeworking can also further exacerbate worker productivity levels if they are already motivated. Fortunately, companies are already deriving new and innovative ways of increasing employee productivity even among work from home employees. Here are just a few ways you can boost employee morale from the comfort of your own home.

If you want to have success that sustains itself, the important thing is to avoid complacency.

That naturally lends itself to complacency because it suggests that there is nothing you can improve, or that trying to improve would be a risk.
Being well does not only mean being physically fit; it also means being psychologically and emotionally fit. Good living should be a part of your daily routine. Chronic conditions and long-term disorders can be prevented by living a safe lifestyle. Self-esteem and self-image are aided by feeling positive about yourself and taking care of your fitness. Maintain a safe lifestyle by following the body’s instructions.
A flexible work arrangement often referred to as flextime or flextime plan is an arrangement of work hours to accommodate an individual, with respect to their needs. This arrangement provides you with the luxury of choosing how you work rather than the traditional nine-to-five working pattern.
I love flexible work arrangements, and if you’re reading this, you probably do, too. This skilled Labour hire company introduces flexible working for its employees – they choose what time to start work, where to work, and when to end work.
It can be a difficult time when you see that one of your employees isn’t the same as usual, maybe they have not got their usual spark or started not to meet deadlines. You’ll notice they are struggling when a certain personality trait is missing and this is a great time to be supportive. For the employee and yourself it can be an overwhelming time to work through but often it will result in a stronger work bond as you will trust each other.
