What are the rules for corporate gifting?

Corporate gifting, while a powerful tool, comes with its own set of rules and regulations to ensure ethical and legal compliance. Here are some key considerations:

‍

1. Legal and ethical guidelines
‍

Bribery and corruption: Avoid gifts that could be perceived as bribes or inducements to influence business decisions. ‍
Gift limits: Many companies set specific monetary limits on corporate gifts to prevent excessive spending and maintain consistency. ‍
Gift restrictions: Certain types of gifts, such as cash or gift cards of significant value, might be prohibited.
‍Government regulations: Be aware of any specific laws or regulations in your region regarding corporate gifting, especially when dealing with government officials or entities. ‍
Company policy: Adhere to your company's internal gift-giving policies, ensuring compliance with ethical standards and legal requirements.

‍

2. Gift selection and presentation
‍

Relevance and personalization: Choose gifts that are relevant to the recipient's interests or profession. Personalization adds a thoughtful touch. ‍
Avoid overly expensive gifts: While appreciation is important, excessively expensive gifts can raise eyebrows and create uncomfortable situations. ‍
Consider the occasion: The type of gift should align with the occasion, whether it's a holiday, a business milestone, or a personal achievement. ‍
Gift presentation: The way you present the gift is crucial. A handwritten note or a personalized message can enhance the impact of the gift. ‍
Tax implications: Be aware of any tax implications associated with corporate gifting, especially for high-value gifts or frequent gifting.

‍

3. Gift recipients
‍

Employees: Gifts for employees can boost morale and loyalty. Consider performance-based rewards, holiday gifts, or gifts for milestones like work anniversaries. ‍
Clients and customers: Gifting clients can strengthen relationships and encourage repeat business. Personalized gifts or gifts related to their interests can make a lasting impression. ‍
Business partners: Building strong partnerships is essential. Gifts can be a gesture of appreciation and collaboration. ‍
Government officials: Be extremely cautious when gifting government officials due to strict regulations and potential legal implications.

Encuestas sobre el pulso de los empleados:

Se trata de encuestas cortas que pueden enviarse con frecuencia para comprobar rápidamente lo que piensan sus empleados sobre un tema. La encuesta consta de menos preguntas (no más de 10) para obtener la información rápidamente. Pueden administrarse a intervalos regulares (mensual/semanal/trimestral).

Reuniones individuales:

Celebrar reuniones periódicas de una hora de duración para mantener una charla informal con cada uno de los miembros del equipo es una forma excelente de hacerse una idea real de lo que ocurre con ellos. Al ser una conversación segura y privada, te ayuda a obtener mejores detalles sobre un asunto.

eNPS:

El eNPS (employee Net Promoter score) es una de las formas más sencillas pero eficaces de evaluar la opinión de sus empleados sobre su empresa. Incluye una pregunta intrigante que mide la lealtad. Un ejemplo de las preguntas del eNPS son ¿Qué probabilidad hay de que recomiende nuestra empresa a otras personas? Los empleados responden a la encuesta eNPS en una escala del 1 al 10, donde el 10 denota que es "muy probable" que recomienden la empresa y el 1 significa que es "muy poco probable" que la recomienden.

En función de las respuestas, los empleados pueden clasificarse en tres categorías diferentes:

Promotores
Empleados que han respondido positivamente o están de acuerdo.
Detractores
Empleados que han reaccionado negativamente o no están de acuerdo.
Pasivos
Empleados que se han mantenido neutrales con sus respuestas.
