What are Company Awards?
Company awards are a way to recognize employees for outstanding work and contributions. They come in a variety of styles and materials, like glass, wood, metal, and more. Perhaps the best choice for a company award is an engraved award, which you can personalize with the recipient’s name, the reason for the award, and the date it was presented. In today’s blog, we’ll go over some of the benefits of bestowing company awards on your employees. Be sure to check out part two of this blog series!

Benefits of Company Awards for Employees
Promotes Work Quality
When you do something right, it’s great to be acknowledged for it. Many employees may not even realize how great of a job they’re doing if no one bothers to tell them. By handing out company awards to the employees and team members who produce top-quality results day in and day out, you help remind them that their efforts are noticed. This, in turn, will encourage them to continue doing great work, because they know it doesn’t go unnoticed.
Increases Morale
Imagine a company with employees who never get a pat on the back, a nod of approval, or a genuine smile that says, “I see your hard work. Great job!” A work environment like this certainly wouldn’t support high morale. When your employees are happy and feel valued, they will bring a more positive attitude to their role. This is especially crucial for team members who work in customer service or other client-facing positions.
Even if an employee doesn’t work in a very social role, simply having a good attitude can make just one person they come into contact with feel better about their day. With company awards, you can help your employees feel positive and promote a stronger work community in which everyone strives to be the best version of themselves.
Breaks Down Professional Barriers
For large companies or companies with a hierarchical structure, it’s easy for disconnects to form between each tier of employees. New hires and entry-level employees may feel that the executives are more like mythical characters than real people, and executives may find themselves feeling guilty when they realize the “new faces” in the office have actually been around for months.
Company awards require executives to spend time learning about their employees and team members, so they know whom to recognize and for what reason. This likely involves engaging with employees, which allows them to get to know the executives as well. You could even flip the scenario by having the employees create awards for managers and executives, which would encourage those groups to spend more time with the people they lead.
