Employee Appreciation Day: How to Make It Last

The concept of a dedicated Employee Appreciation Day is nothing new. In fact, in 1995, the USA started celebrating a somewhat unofficial Employee Appreciation Day on the first Friday in March. This tradition has helped spark a revolution in the ways employees and employers interact with one another.

Today, employees look for more than financial benefits when considering finding a long-term place of work. They look at the overall culture of the company. How are employees treated? What is the work-life balance? Will there be flexibility and room to grow inside the company? Having a single day to show your employees how much you value them simply is not enough.

But it’s a good way to start – and we’re here to give you tips on how to turn one day into an overall company culture of personal gratitude that inspires employee loyalty.
