Building a Culture of Recognition -
Recruiting, Retaining & Inspiring Employees
I Love Rewards builds online points-based reward programs that drive the employee behaviours most important to companies.
I Love Rewards wanted to build a 'culture of recognition' and needed a way to reward, recognize, and motivate their staff in a way that would boost employee morale and increase productivity.
Taking this one step further, I Love Rewards also wanted to attract the best and brightest new recruits to the company by positioning themselves as a highly desirable place to work. Confronting their shortcomings and examining the success stories of other companies, I Love Rewards began developing their own employee incentive program.
Based on the best practices knowledge they acquired and through extensive feedback from employees, I Love Rewards developed a points-based rewards program, the Employee Applause Program. It is a program that rewards employees with points for numerous behaviours that the company has identified is important for their success.
The Employee Applause Program offers multiple ways to provide points, including administrator uploads, peer-to-peer online recognition with or without approval, or immediate recognition through new 'PointsCard' technology. The program is consistently communicated at internal events, keeping recognition top of mind. The points-based system empowers employees to get the brand-name rewards they want, when they want them.
"Our number one priority is to recruit, retain, and inspire great people. Our internal 'Applause Program' contributes to building a culture of recognition and aligns with our company's vision. A rewards and recognition program is an investment in people, not a cost."
