Employee Appreciation Day

For more than 25 years, the first Friday of every March has become a respected holiday - Employee Appreciation Day. On that day, employees across the U.S. are recognized for their contributions and achievements in a variety of industries. This holiday is the perfect time to focus your efforts on celebrating the people who have helped your organization thrive. Employee Appreciation Day falls on March 4th this year - don’t forget to demonstrate how much your company values their employees!

Why Your Company Should be Celebrating:

• Recognition Goes a Long Way

  While some employees might have specific ways in which they want to be recognized, a simple “thank you” or quick shout-out can do the trick. Nobody wants to work long hours if they know their organization won’t show appreciation for their efforts. Recognition will demonstrate your company’s values not just to your employees, but to potential clients as well.

• Recognition = Retention

  In the past, employers might have forgotten to celebrate Employee Appreciation Day, but now it’s more important than ever to note it on your calendar. The Great Resignation has shown us that if an employee feels unappreciated in their workplace, they are more inclined to resign compared to earlier years.
