What is our employee engagement program?
Staff Australia recognises the importance of employee wellbeing and overall mental health, which is why employee engagement is more crucial than ever. Whether you are a full-time, part-time, or casual employee, you shouldn’t miss out on the benefits of being part of the Staff Australia team.
Our Employee Engagement Program is designed to create a sense of belonging and community among all our temporary and permanent employees, encouraging them to work hard and remain committed, while also enjoying the perks of working with a supportive and relationship orientated agency.
The benefits of having an employee engagement program are indisputable. Businesses with high employee engagement are more likely to experience an increase in productivity, a reduction in staff turnover, improved customer satisfaction, and an overall enhanced workplace culture.
Program Initiatives:
Our Employee Engagement Program includes the following initiatives:
Training and Development: Reports indicate that companies can see a 21% increase in productivity when they are working with engaged employees who are committed to their role (Forbes 2019). At Staff Australia, we believe that continuous growth and self-improvement are major motivators for our employees, which is why we offer various training and development opportunities to help our staff to up-skill and stay competitive in the job market. From toolbox talks to technical workshops, we ensure you’ll have the knowledge and skills needed to succeed.
Reward and Recognition: Staff Australia understands the importance of acknowledging your hard work and dedication. As part of our employee engagement program, we make sure to celebrate our high achievers and recognise their contributions to the business. These rewards include Employee of the Month and Employee Appreciation awards. These recognitions come with prizes and can offer career growth opportunities. The impact of recognition to employers is significant, with highly engaged organisations reporting a 41% decrease in absenteeism (Forbes 2019).
Social Functions: Building a sense of community is important to us. We want to reiterate that “no one is just a number”, at Staff Australia, staff members are invited to attend social events. Our on-site BBQs are a staple of our engagement program, offering our staff a casual and fun way to interact with peers and supervisors. We are determined to provide a positive space for employees to connect and unwind. We are committed to making the workplace more enjoyable.
Effective Communication: Staff Australia knows that payment is important. We understand that receiving an accurate and timely payment is crucial for financial stability and employee trust. Therefore, we have a committed payroll team, who is open to providing our employees with income related information and support. Further to this, Staff Australia prioritises open communication, especially when we visit client sites, we make a point to connect with our employees, ensuring they feel supported.
Enjoy the perks!
Our Employee Engagement Program is designed to ensure that casual employees feel just as much a part of the team as our full-time staff. By offering training and development, reward and recognition, social functions, on-site BBQs, and effective communication, we can continue to create a supportive and engaging work environment.
