Your employees are the heartbeat of your operations. Without them it is impossible to achieve success, so you need to make sure you are hiring the right personnel.
That’s not all, though. Humans are not robots, and they expect to work in an environment that encourages them to perform to their full potential. Express Refreshments looks at how you can support your employees to stay productive at work.
With hybrid working being one of the fastest accelerated trends of the past 18 months, leaders must prepare for it to remain even beyond the pandemic. It has reinforced the idea that work is an outcome that isn’t affected by place or time, giving people the freedom to work almost wherever they feel most comfortable.
There is still a lot of thought that needs to go into hybrid working to make it a success moving forward, however. Culture and connection are two aspects that can make or break hybrid working and the best companies will put their employees first to develop a working schedule that reaps the rewards. Express Refreshments explores what this means.
The connection between refreshments and productivity is arguably undervalued. The fact is having access to refreshments makes us more alert, more creative and generally happier, which is why they’re particularly important in the workplace.
Express Refreshments introduced the first UK Micro Market in 2013 so we understand the importance of workplace refreshments for wellbeing and productivity. Here we dive into the science which uncovers some very interesting facts.
According to a study, people who feel connected to their colleagues are seven times more likely to be engaged in their jobs. It also found that good working relationships are linked to better customer engagement and increased profit.
The Micro Market is an advanced workplace refreshment facility that encourages staff to take time out with their colleagues. This will benefit both your team and your business.
As an employer, you require your workforce to be highly productive in order to reach your business goals. But it’s important to understand that this doesn’t just happen in an instant.
Motivation is the key attribute to productivity. Focus on the former to see an increase in the latter. Creating a positive working environment is a great way to shine a light on business culture and emphasise that you care for the wellbeing of your team.
The following report from Express Refreshments and Coinadrink Limited explores the benefits of an employee perk or perks and details which ones are considered to be most valuable.
More and more companies are starting to understand the importance of offering their employees food in the workplace. For larger sites in particular, food has traditionally been provided via a workplace canteen. But now there is a better solution. One that’s simple, stylish and also cheaper to enjoy. The Micro Market is the future of the workplace refreshments and lots of workplaces are already choosing this revolutionary new idea in favour of the canteen.
