“The findings of the survey show something we’ve known for a long time – engagement is complex and multifaceted. With this in mind organisations must take a comprehensive approach to its measurement – using questionnaires that cover all the bases, as well as allow the HR department to break the results down to gain a granular understanding of the nature and levels of employee engagement.
“From there, at the heart of any efforts to engage a workforce must be a strategic recognition programme. Recognition is an incredibly powerful tool that is closely linked to engagement and can enable organisations to motivate and engage their staff. Indeed, strategic recognition allows a company to align its core values and objectives with the behaviours that are being rewarded and recognised, naturally culturing a consistent and desired atmosphere amongst staff.
“With suitable measures in place for understanding and quantifying staff engagement levels, along with a well-planned strategic recognition programme, organisations can realistically maintain a loyal, happier and more productive workforce.”
