Employee recognition is a very important part of company culture. So much so, more and more HR Tech is dedicated to making employee recognition easy for both employees and managers. And it can address important business objectives relating to employee engagement, like attracting top talent and increasing productivity. In fact, 40% of workers in the U.S. said they would go the extra mile for a company that rewards and recognizes them on a regular basis. This means even the smallest investment in an employee engagement platform could have a big impact on your company’s bottom line.
Here are just a few of the key business objectives HR tech, employee recognition and employee engagement can address when working together:
- A lack of employee retention can cost a company up to 150% of the departed employees salary to replace them. When employees feel recognized for their accomplishments, they tend to stay at their company.
- According to Aon Hewitt, employee engagement is falling for the first time since 2012, which could mean more employee absences and less productivity.
- Departments with engaged workforces are 21% more productive than those at the bottom of the engagement scale.
With more and more HR tech providers offering a solution addressing employee engagement and recognition, it might be hard to decide which is the right one for your company. But according to HRO Today’s Baker’s Dozen Survey, Achievers is the cream of the crop. As announced on August 17th, 2017 Achievers finished first out of 13 ranked vendors in both the overall score category and the Breadth of Service Category.
HRO Today ‘s rankings are based on the buyers of the services, rather than the opinion of HRO Today staff. The overall category ranking is derived from three components: features breadth, deal sizes, and quality. Check out what Elliot Clark, CEO of SharedXpertise and Publisher of HRO Today, said about why Achievers won:
