Here is how the Micro Market can boost staff retention in 2023.
As we enter 2023, staff retention remains a big problem for business leaders. In the manufacturing industry in particular, staff turnover rose to 20% in 2022, up from the 15% UK average.
With studies suggesting a better focus on employee wellbeing could significantly boost staff retention, here is how the Express Refreshments Micro Market can benefit your business.
The Micro Market shows you value your team.
Refreshments have always been synonymous with the working day. Tea and coffee breaks, in addition to lunch breaks, are a necessity to reduce to stress, encourage creativity and assist wellbeing.
The Micro Market is a custom-designed refreshment facility for the workplace, bringing all your favourite refreshments into one central location with 24/7 access. That’s fresh bean coffee, tempting treats, fresh food, and a whole lot more from the heart of the workplace.
Whilst exercise should be encouraged, no employee enjoys being forced off site for refreshments. The Micro Market makes it easy to take a break in the workplace whenever your staff need, with the added option to intertwine the facility with a dedicated breakout area consisting of comfy seating, TV’s and more.
Encouraging rest and collaboration to aid productivity later in the day, the Micro Market is a workplace refreshment solution that represents a grand employee perk.
And with the market being built from the ground up to your exact design and requirements, it’s a great way to overhaul company culture and boost staff retention.
The Micro Market caters to all working preferences.
With over a quarter of UK employees hybrid working on a permanent basis, you won’t be the only leader that has had to rethink and even redesign their workplace to suit a lower number of staff on site at any one time.
Contract catering is too fixed for today’s modern world. If employees aren’t on site for their visit, they miss out on vital refreshments. The Micro Market is totally unmanned and is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It relies on trust of your employees in a private location, with the reassurance of CCTV.
What that means, is employees can grab a hot drink or bite to eat whenever they are on site. Whether staff are after breakfast at 7am, or the night staff are craving a coffee to keep them going, everyone is well catered for. Express Refreshments provides a fully managed service driven by telemetry too, so your products will always be replenished and available without you needing to chase us.
As the modern world shifts to suit working preferences, the flexibility of the Micro Market solution provides exactly what staff want when they want it, therefore increasing satisfaction on site.
The Micro Market can turn staff retention on its head.
With the Micro Market central to your workplace wellbeing initiatives, you could turn staff retention completely on its head. Instead of worrying about losing key talent, you might instead be able to attract such expertise.
Whilst 80% of existing employees in a recent survey said perks and benefits may mean more to them than a pay rise, it’s also intriguing to know that 48% of staff in a separate study stated that the quality of on-site facilities would be one of their priorities when hunting for a “new” job.
The Micro Market is an investment in your businesses’ long-term health and success. By retaining and attracting star talent, you are giving the business the best chance to flourish.
Who wouldn’t want all kinds of refreshments on demand, with a dedicated breakout area that puts workplace wellbeing first?
