Help Improve Employee Productivity and Relations
Rewarding employees for a job well done isn’t just good for morale. It’s good for business! Everyone knows happy employees make happy customers. So why not reward your employees with a custom challenge coin that serves as a constant reminder of your appreciation?
Employee recognition programs drive employee engagement, build trust and respect with management, and create positive workplace environments. All that equates to better employee retention and productivity, leading to increased profitability. Help strengthen your team, and improve their performance, with employee recognition coins.
What are Employee Recognition Coins?
It has become customary tradition for military leaders such as platoon leaders and company commanders to reward members of their team for extraordinary performance. They’ve found that rewarding excellence has a positive impact on a team’s overall performance and sense of unity. Like with many other traditions, employee recognition coins emerged as a result of military veterans transitioning back to a civilian life.
As military personnel transition back into civilian life, they often get jobs with corporations, or create their own businesses. It is here that they lead teams and reward their employees or team members with employee recognition coins. In the military, challenge coins strengthen teams by rewarding individual members and creating a sense of unity. It should come as no surprise then, that the tradition of challenge coins would have a similar positive impact with corporate teams as there are many parallels between the two.
Some Appropriate Occasions for Employee Recognition Coins:
In the military, soldiers are often awarded a challenge coin for things such as important milestones and going above and beyond the call of duty. It’s very much the same in a corporate environment. Here is a list of typical occasions when employees are awarded with a recognition coin:
- Employee or company anniversaries
- Acquiring a significant business account
- In recognition of a raise or promotion
- Completing a training program
- Acquiring a new skillset
- Completing an important project
- Being recognized as “Employee of the Month”
- Achieving an important sales or production goal
- Going above and beyond
