How can businesses encourage their employees to "think Green"? If environmentally-friendly practices are important to your business, consider recognizing employees who help your organization achieve its green goals.
I was talking with an employer who recently gave out "GREEN MEANS GO" awards to employees who offered ideas for ways that the company could cost-effectively reduce, reuse or recycle.
If you're looking to implement a green recognition program, look for awards that offer options for the environmentally conscious employer.
There are loads of award options out there that will send the right message. Full disclosure, as you may know, I work for a recognition program provider, so I'm partial to some of the choices in our company's repertoire. Terryberry's collection includes earth-friendly options like sustainable bamboo housewares, an indoor gardener kit for home-grown produce or an eco-friendly battery-free watch. Online award redemption programs can also support a green recognition program by eliminating paper award brochures.
