Let’s face it. Managers are not always around to witness each and every employee achievement at work. That is where peer recognition comes into play! Often fellow employees are the ones who experience their peers’ contributions first-hand. For instance, an employee might notice a situation when a co-worker stepped in to help in the eleventh hour, or they may witness an employee who takes on extra tasks without making a fuss. These recognition-worthy moments shouldn’t go unnoticed in the workplace.
A little appreciation makes a world of difference, especially in the workplace. To perform their best, employees need to know their hard work is noticed and appreciated. Peer recognition programs can help your company foster a sense of community and teamwork. When employees are able to publicly recognize each other for a job well done, it can add a big impact. It can also be a much more effective system in today’s global environment where managers or other supervisors may not even be in the same location as their employees.
Inviting employees to participate in giving recognition for great work that they see is an important way to engage everyone in your organization. Terryberry’s Give a WOW program for peer-to-peer recognition awards allows employees to do just that.
