The employee engagement seems to be a challenging role for present HR team . Lets dig deep into it to find out what matters in it :
1) Connect what employees do to what they care about. Employees are more likely to feel they fit at an organization that stands for social change. Research show that people are willing to give up financial benefits to work for an organization that practices corporate social and environmental responsibility.
2) Make the work itself less stressful and more enjoyable. Offer employees the flexibility to try new work tasks so they can discover their intrinsic interests.
3) Encourage employees to invest in time-saving purchases. Time-saving purchases (e.g., housecleaning, meal delivery services) enable employees to spend money on products in return for more leisure time, increasing their feelings of time affluence.
4) Implement tools that discourage after-hours emails. Employees often report that their email inbox is the largest time drain, so using a tool that allows people to pause the inflow of emails after hours can encourage employees to have more “off” time.
Aligning work with what employees care about, offering flexibility, and helping with time-saving tools can really boost engagement. And yes, cutting down on after-hours emails is a game-changer for better work-life balance! Appreciate you sharing this!
Great insights, Ashish. Employee engagement is indeed crucial for both retention and productivity. Your suggestions on aligning tasks with employee passions and minimizing stress will surely resonate with many in HR. Keep up the excellent work in driving this conversation forward!
