"Employee recognition is vital for employee engagement, satisfaction, motivation, morale, and mental health. It's good for employees. But it's good for the company bottom line as well: When employees are recognized, they are more productive and loyal, and organizational performance rises (Brun & Dugas, 2008; Arunraj, et al., 2024). Moreover, research examining the individual impact of recognition, feedback, and money on employee task performance finds that employee performance is greatest when all three of these are present in combination (Stajkovic & Luthans, 2003)."
"Employee recognition boosts morale, engagement, and performance, buffers stress, and reduces turnover. Recognition should go beyond results to also acknowledge effort, work practices, strengths, and the person. Peer recognition often impacts employee well-being more than supervisor praise does. Consistent, specific, authentic recognition is more powerful than praise in annual reviews or big events. This time of year, many of us pause to reflect on what we're grateful for-family, friends, health, and the comforts of home."
Employee recognition increases morale, engagement, motivation, satisfaction, and mental health, and improves productivity, loyalty, and organizational performance. Recognition that acknowledges effort, work practices, strengths, and the person is more meaningful than praise focused solely on results. Peer recognition frequently has a stronger impact on employee well-being than supervisor praise. Consistent, specific, and authentic recognition is more effective than occasional praise delivered during annual reviews or big events. Recognition combined with feedback and financial rewards produces the greatest improvements in task performance. Recognition also helps employees cope with rapid organizational change, buffering stress and reducing turnover.
