When employing people to join your business it is important to have a system in place and an idea about the things employers should offer their employees. 

For example, things such as a pension and health insurance go without saying for many companies; but many also offer a whole life plethora of extra features for their employees. Now is the time to take a look at some of the extra perks you should add to your rosta and offer your employees this year. 

Their birthday 

One of the best extra perks you can offer to your team this year is their birthday as a day off. This is a gesture that shows how much you care because no one ever wants to work on their birthday. You can have this as an extra day on top of their yearly allocation and it will be a day they can spend with their families at home or doing what they enjoy.

Duvet days 

Mental health is something that is more important than ever, and thankfully companies are now realising in the impact that mental health can have on employees in the workplace.

If you are looking for the ideal way to show your employees that you care about their well-being - offering 3 duvet days a year is a wonderful perk alongside their holiday allocation. Duvet days are for those days when an employee wakes up and simply cannot fathom getting up to go to work.

Instead, they can call a duvet day and spend their time at home watching Netflix and eating junk food to calm their mind. This kind of mental health day is something that is becoming more and more popular and is one you should absolutely offer. 

Training 

Essential training such and health and safety and Kallibr training is something every company must offer to their teams. But what you can also do is offer extra support for your employee’s career.

Every employee under your care will have a career path - even if they need guidance to find it. As a good employer it is your job to invest in the development of your employees and see them better themselves on both a personal and professional level. 

Health benefits 

Consider aside from health insurance what you could offer to keep your employees healthy and happy during their time working for you.

It will pay for you to invest in the health of your employees because it will allow them to work for you more productively and stay working for you for longer. Consider providing things such as dental and optical care amongst other types of care to help your employees stay in tip top shape. 

Flexibility 

One of the best perks you can offer your employees is flexibility. It is important to be flexible in this day and age because the working landscape is changing day by day. It is no longer a 9-5 world and you need to be able to work to your employees needs.
