Flexible Belohnungen

Flexible rewards have become a cornerstone in modern workforce management, offering a dynamic approach to recognizing and motivating employees beyond traditional compensation structures. In today's competitive job market, organizations are increasingly realizing the importance of tailoring rewards to the diverse preferences of their workforce.

This comprehensive approach encompasses monetary incentives and extends to non-monetary and tangible/intangible rewards, creating a holistic strategy to enhance employee engagement and satisfaction.

What are flexible rewards?

Flexible rewards, also known as flexible compensation, refer to a compensation and recognition approach that allows employees to choose from a range of options based on their individual preferences and needs.

Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach to compensation and benefits, flexible rewards programs provide employees with a menu of options, allowing them to tailor their compensation packages to align with their unique circumstances and priorities.

Flexible rewards typically encompass both monetary and non-monetary elements, offering employees a mix of financial incentives and other perks. The goal is to provide a more personalized and adaptable compensation structure that goes beyond traditional salary and benefits packages.

Umfragen zum Puls der Mitarbeiter:

Es handelt sich um kurze Umfragen, die häufig verschickt werden können, um schnell zu erfahren, was Ihre Mitarbeiter über ein Thema denken. Die Umfrage umfasst weniger Fragen (nicht mehr als 10), um die Informationen schnell zu erhalten. Sie können in regelmäßigen Abständen durchgeführt werden (monatlich/wöchentlich/vierteljährlich).

Treffen unter vier Augen:

Regelmäßige, einstündige Treffen für ein informelles Gespräch mit jedem Teammitglied sind eine hervorragende Möglichkeit, ein echtes Gefühl dafür zu bekommen, was mit ihnen passiert. Da es sich um ein sicheres und privates Gespräch handelt, können Sie so mehr Details über ein Problem erfahren.

eNPS:

Der eNPS (Employee Net Promoter Score) ist eine der einfachsten, aber effektivsten Methoden, um die Meinung Ihrer Mitarbeiter über Ihr Unternehmen zu ermitteln. Er enthält eine interessante Frage, die die Loyalität misst. Ein Beispiel für eNPS-Fragen sind: Wie wahrscheinlich ist es, dass Sie unser Unternehmen weiter empfehlen? Die Mitarbeiter beantworten die eNPS-Umfrage auf einer Skala von 1 bis 10, wobei 10 bedeutet, dass sie das Unternehmen mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit weiterempfehlen würden, und 1 bedeutet, dass sie es mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit nicht weiterempfehlen würden.

Anhand der Antworten können die Arbeitnehmer in drei verschiedene Kategorien eingeteilt werden:

Projektträger
Mitarbeiter, die positiv geantwortet oder zugestimmt haben.
Kritiker
Mitarbeiter, die sich negativ geäußert haben oder nicht einverstanden waren.
Passive
Mitarbeiter, die sich bei ihren Antworten neutral verhalten haben.
