Happy employees contribute to the company growth proactively. While there is a deficit of high-quality individuals and many companies are seeking out for them, it is crucial to implement ways to keep them happy.
They might be getting high compensation, but in today's competitive scenario, it is fundamental to implement benefits that make them stay in the company. If they are not happy, their productivity decreases, and there is nothing that is stopping them from moving to another company.

A happy takes the lead, help others, act purposefully and vouch for the company. Let's look at different ways you can increase employee happiness in your company:

Open Communication

Work pressure, tight deadlines and the race for growth creates a fast-paced environment in the organization. Employee sometimes develops a hard feeling for the colleagues or founders. It's vital that they feel heard and that their botherations are being addressed. Create a structure to take complaints thoughtfully, and that anyone can come up with ideas to the problem at hand. It will not only increases employee satisfaction but will also promote the best solution to problems the company is solving.

Focus on Individual Personality

Not all employees act the same way. Companies should put efforts to understand each one of them. Some individuals are empathetic towards others, some who are reserved, some who leads their way, others choose their work hours. It's the company's role to understand the personality and working style of the employees. Recognizing and knowing your employees will keep them happy and will increase retention.

Contests/Giveaways

The company can plan periodic giveaways and encourage their employees to show up to win cool prizes. Surprise giveaways help drive community actions in the company. Acknowledging small acts will go a long way in building a healthy culture in the company.

Social Gatherings

Order a lunch, go out for a movie or an outing or even rent out a different place for a day. Not letting your employees get bore of the repetitive work and schedule is one the priority for the companies. The more active and energetic they are at work, the better the quality of work will be.

Responsible Trusting Environment

Actively keep a sense of what your company's current culture is. Does the company promote open feedback? Do ideas flow freely? Do they feel trusted? The more they are allowed to express and take stand for what they believe, the more trusted they feel. When the employee contribution is appreciated, the company develops the necessary trust with them.

Monetary Prizes

For more established companies, rewarding employees with vacation or a week off with their family is a great way to show appreciation to their best employees. Many employees look forward to these prizes. The employee of the month and bounty programs are other ways to bring in variations to keep the excitement of the employees

Self-development Programs

To work hard is essential, but to stay relevant, one has to keep learning. Employees want to grow and letting them choose their career path, instils freedom of choice. When they work for their next stage of self-development, they feel the necessary care and company benefits by their knowledge and skills.

There are hundreds of ways to acknowledge your employee aside from the regular paycheck. Taking small steps to take an interest in employee well-being goes a long way to increase retention in the company.
