Innovative Workplace Benefits: Perks Employees Look For

Companies can differentiate themselves from their competitors by offering employees unique and valuable benefits that go beyond just basics such as health insurance and 401k plans. Examples include offering child care for working mothers, healthy lifestyle options such as on-site gyms or discounts for healthy food options, a common area for employees to gather and share ideas, tuition reimbursement and training programs, and flexible schedules. Results-based systems like ROWE, where employees can choose their hours and focus on what really matters, are also becoming more popular. Providing these types of benefits increase employee engagement and motivation, ultimately benefiting the company in the long run.
