Social Recognition
Social Recognition
Prize Voucher remains at the forefront of employee incentive programmes by constantly evolving to include new platforms and approaches to recognise and reward staff. One such platform is an internal programme that is run through the campaign website which allows you to maximise the interaction with participants of the campaign. It is essentially a private internally run ‘Facebook-type-social-platform’ purely focused on the incentive programme and the company. The social platform allows participants to be recognised for outstanding behaviour, discuss work and campaign related material and share photos and comments regarding their rewards and the entire experience of being rewarded and recognised. These actions encourage their colleagues to strive harder to receive the same treatment and incentives.
The advantages and details are as follows:
-
Recognise your employees in a new and exciting way by using internal social media as the foundational tool in your recognition strategy.
-
Internal social media recognition uses social media type tools to engage and recognises your employees in real time and is exclusive to your company.
-
To positively affect behaviour and values, employees need consistent feedback and acknowledgment from line managers and peers, which the platform enables and encourages.
-
Recognition strategies often only focus on service anniversaries or sales rewards but social media’s real-time interaction can empower managers and peers to recognise everyday successes that often go unnoticed.
-
Offer peer to peer recognition to your employees by allowing them to acknowledge anyone in the organisation complying with your company’s culture and values therefore creating a true culture of recognition. Peer to peer recognition encourages employees to lookout for peer behaviours as well as re-evaluate their own behaviour.
-
The platform is user friendly and is a close-loop website accessible in all departments and available to all employees in your organisation.
-
The platform promotes recognition of certain behaviours and achievements. The platform allows peers to see who has been recognised and for what.
-
Empower employees to add their personal congratulations to the social feed and strengthen the impact of the moment of recognition.
-
Recognition through social media helps executives reach their employees and vice versa.
-
The social media based recognition program can also be integrated to link with peer to peer nominations or managers can award points to their employees. Points can be redeemed for a variety of different rewards such as gift cards, experiences, gadgets, electronics, weekends away and much more. Organisations can also include their own prizes by offering days off, lunch vouchers, and anything else that they desire.

It is important not to confuse engagement with satisfaction. Employees can still be satisfied without fully understanding and embracing the core competency of the company, thus affecting your success. Employee engagement is indicated by the employee’s commitment, what they do in their quieter times and ultimately the amount of effort they exert on productive undertakings.
