      What do your employees really want for Christmas?

      What do your employees really want for Christmas?

      Posted on November 20th, 2024

      Your team has worked hard all year, Christmas is coming and you’re keen to show your appreciation. But what do your employees really want? When a mug with the company logo on it just won’t cut it, read on for some suggestions from the Occupational Health experts at YourGP.

      Your team is your biggest asset

      Before searching for the perfect present, it’s important to remind yourself exactly why it’s essential to show your appreciation to your staff. The reason is quite simple – your staff are your biggest asset. A skilled, trained team knows your business inside and out, and if they are happy and fulfilled in their job, they are the most valuable brand ambassadors you could hope for. Countless studies have shown that happy employees are productive employees, and ultimately their wellbeing can be the key to driving your business success.

      Start with the basics

      When asked what the most important factor is when choosing a job, many people would place salary near the top of their priority list. The amount of holidays and the degree of flexibility can also be deciding factors, as can company culture and reputation.

      When an existing employee feels these factors are not meeting their expectations, disappointment, disinterest and disloyalty are at risk of setting in. And these are major issues that can’t be remedied with a Christmas present.

      What staff really want

      In order to feel happy and fulfilled in their role, most employees would say it is important to feel valued in the workplace. This can be reflected to some extent through a fair salary and holiday allowance. But in addition, most employees would agree that they also would like to to be heard, respected, nurtured, encouraged and supported to reach their full potential. All this is only possible if the workplace culture allows it to be so.

      Why Occupational Healthcare matters

      Studies have shown that employees who receive the right support in the workplace are less likely to get sick, under-perform or take time off work. So it really does pay to invest in the health and wellbeing of your team. One way to do that is to work with YourGP to provide your staff with a robust Occupational Healthcare package.

      We offer a range of health screening and health assessment services, including an executive health medical – YourGP’s most popular option. We can also provide fitness for work assessments, which can determine suitability for employment and identify any reasonable adjustments that may need to be considered after a period of absence. And we can deliver all this with minimum disruption to your business. Our flexible, “on-demand” service is designed to fit within your schedule, thus minimising disruption to your working day.
