Awesome Employee Perks Your Team Will Love snacknation-pets
Vacation / Paid Time Off
It’s been said that time is our most valuable commodity.
As Rick Warren writes in his book, The Purpose Driven Life, “Time is your most precious gift because you only have a set amount of it. You can make more money, but you can’t make more time…. Your time is your life.”
Similarly, studies have shown that once our basic needs are met, experiences contribute to our long term happiness much more than material things.
For these reasons, a preponderance of respondents to Glassdoor’s survey indicated that they valued vacation or paid time off over a salary raise.
Many companies have escalated this idea to its logical extreme, and instituted open vacation policies and summer Friday’s off.
While it may seem counterintuitive, companies like Netflix and Austin-based Umbel have found that an unlimited vacation policy can have a wide range of benefits, including more productive employees.
Don’t be mistaken – an unlimited or “open” vacation policy doesn’t mean that employees can take off half the year and still collect a paycheck. Rather, companies that adopt these policies allow employees as much PTO as they need to recharge as long as they meet deadlines and produce results.
Aligning your vacation policy with results rather than basing it on accrual can have a profound effect on your organization’s overall culture.
Performance Bonus
As we’ve demonstrated so far, the effectiveness of monetary incentives (particularly salaries) has its limits. However, that’s not to say that monetary incentives as a whole don’t work.
The key is to connect monetary rewards to the emotions that keep employees engaged in their work.
Performance bonuses are a fantastic way to do just that. By tying the reward to results, performance bonuses give employees a sense of ownership and control.
It helps motivate them in their work, and gives them a tangible ownership stake in their role. I.e., if they perform and hit their goals, they will receive a reward – one that they both earned and deserve.
Paid Sick Days
Similar to Vacation or PTO, paid sick days give employees back their most valuable commodity – their time – while also letting them know that they are cared for and appreciated.
An added benefit? It sets the right tone to keep your office healthy during cold and flu season.
And that’s a public health threat! The National Partnership for Women and Families says,
“People without paid sick days are 1.5 times more likely than those with paid sick days to report going to work with a contagious illness like the flu or a viral infection.”
This issue creates more problems when workers without paid sick leave work in restaurants, stores, and other places where they talk to lots of people in addition to people in the office.
Retirement Plan and/or Pension
perks that employees want
Again, for many employees, peace of mind is invaluable.
Particularly, those who worked during the financial uncertainty of the Great Recession of the late 2000’s, financial security is a premium benefit.
And as it turns out, most employees have strong feelings about their retirement benefits. Fora Financial surveyed over 1,000 workers to gauge their retirement benefit perceptions. Here are some survey highlights:
Workers without employee-sponsored retirement benefits don’t believe they’ll be able to retire comfortably. (Only 32% of this subset feel good about their retirement prospects.)
Retirement plans double the likelihood that employees will be satisfied with their benefits package.
Flexible Schedule (work from home)
Flexibility is increasingly becoming a desired perk for the modern employee, who is trying to balance a myriad of personal and professional responsibilities, including education and familial duties.
It’s especially true for employees with children at home. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, both parents work in 60% of the households with children in the U.S.
A flexible schedule – including the ability to work from home – is a necessity for these families, who need to be able to juggle multiple responsibilities.
Emotionally, affording employees flexibility in their schedule demonstrates that they are trusted partners (not just 9-5ers chained to a desk), and leads to higher engagement.
生前告別式
A party before dying: Japanese are embracing the logic of the 'pre-funeral'
TOKYO -- With all the flowers and teary eyes, the send-off for Satoru Anzaki looked just like any other funeral, with one conspicuous difference: Anzaki was alive.
Having been diagnosed with terminal cancer, the former president of construction machinery maker Komatsu decided to host one last party.
The 80-year-old had taken out an ad in The Nikkei to let people know he did not intend to undergo treatment and would be holding an event in December to thank his friends and colleagues for everything they had done for him over the years. About 1,000 people, ranging from business associates to old school friends, gathered to wish Anzaki well at a Tokyo hotel, where over 100 pictures of him enjoying his passions of golf and traveling were on display.
Despite being confined to a wheelchair, the octogenarian made the rounds of each table to express his and shake everyone's hand.
In the Nov. 20 ad, Anzaki revealed that he had been diagnosed with terminal gallbladder cancer and chosen not to go through a painful course of treatment as he wanted to "prioritize quality of life." He also stated a desire to thank people while he was still well enough to do so.

"It was just like Anzaki to host an event like this," said a former colleague who worked under Anzaki in the company's overseas business department. "He values human relationships more than anything else."
While hosting such "pre-funerals" is unusual, some think it is an idea whose time has come. Mari Matsui, director of design company Ray Creation in Osaka, began working with funeral clients about four years ago when the company created a sophisticated casket out of Yoshino cedar. The company then began making videos for funeral services using footage from the family of the deceased, with some customers suggesting the films could be used as a sort of widescreen "altar." After listening to her customers' responses to the videos, she realized that the "pre-funeral" could become a real business.
"Some customers started to think the videos should be seen by family and friends while they are alive," she said. "The host can appreciate and communicate with their old friends and significant others."
Matsui will in February use crowdfunding to begin raising money for her creative pre-funeral business.
"In Japan, experts predict we will be living to the age of 100. That's great, but it also means fewer people will be around to mourn for a person when they die, which is a pity," Matsui said. "A pre-funeral is a good opportunity for older men and women to communicate with relatives and friends."
Anzaki's pre-funeral seemed to strike a positive note with the public and showed there is a potential market for them, said Takeshi Horishita, operating officer of Kamakura Shinsho, a funeral industry research company.
"The reaction to Anzaki's pre-funeral showed that ordinary people welcomed and accepted the idea more than we expected," he said. "We think more people will be interested in having such farewell parties before they die."
In a news conference just after the event, a smiling Anzaki told reporters: "I am happy to be able to convey my gratitude in my own words. I want to make the most of the rest of my time and be put in a coffin having thought, 'My life was really fun.'"
