We all need a break from work. Usually it happens when we head home. Unfortunately, home is now the office and we see a lot of blurred lines.
So how do you, as an HR person ensure your employees have a great festive season?
Here are 7 ways to be the coolest HR -
1. Organise a virtual Diwali party — Like we mentioned in our previous article, send out invites, get people to decorate their work station, ask them to dress in traditional clothes. Just light it all up, virtually.
2. Organise interesting talks — Motivation is a rare commodity these days. Find out about some brilliant Coaches and Trainers, pick an interesting and relevant topic and have a lovely webinar
3. Free hour per week — Get your employees to socialise like they would if they were working in a regular office. Fix an hour a week for just reconnecting. It could be via a quiz or games or just conversations.
4. Be Kind day — Workd kindness day is on the 13th November. Though one sgould be kind every day, we need a reminder sometimes. Encourage your employees to be kind to one another and do one random act of kindness and share about it.
5. Star of the day — Once a week, randomly pick a department and the star employee of that department and focus the entire day sharing about them (positive things). Encourage others to come forward to share good experiences. Maybe start an anonymous — suggest the next name for Star of the day.
6. Digital gift cards — Send out digital giftcards like EchojoyGiftCards to your employees. Echojoy Multibrand Gift Cards are redeemable across 150+ top brands including Amazon, Flipkart, CaratLane etc.
7. Open Communication — Keep your communication channels open. Be the ear, the shoulder and the spine for your employees.
Happy Festive Season to you.
