Giving your staff a bonus or perk doesn't have to cost the earth if you add a little creative thinking into the equation, bnet suggests in a recent blog.
The post offers the following three examples of budget friendly staff incentives:
1. Focus on gifts with meaning - a Colorado brewery gives staff a bicycle to mark their one-year anniversaries… a tangible, tactile and environmentally sound gesture
2. The gift of time off - offer staff two free 'I don't want to get out of bed' days to be used when their schedule is meeting free; you may just find it results in a fall in absenteeism
3. Make it memorable - research shows cash staff don't remember cash incentives, but they might just remember being awarded a $10 or $25 gift card for meeting targets
I agree. it does not have to cost the world.
Have a look it this for example, very good value for money and unique: www.smsyourgift.com.au/syggifts/gift
