Praising a job well done
Although many employers do not see things this way, employees do want them to appreciate good work not only in monetary terms, but also non-financially. Praise quality employees and thank them publicly for their outstanding work.
Sufficiently empowered employees
According to Forbes, a frequent source of frustration among employees is insufficient maneuvering space for creativity and a lack of empowerment for their own work. Trust your employees and allow them enough authority that will enable them to work with maximum efficiency and influence the things and systems they are working with.
Personal development as a real opportunity, not just a theory
Your company should value employees who are trying to develop and it should support them in their personal growth. If you offer employees the possibility of developing personally and becoming an expert in a certain field, they will have one reason less to leave.
Set up clear rules for career development
Set up clear, transparent and firmly established rules for climbing the career ladder in your company. Employees should be secure in the knowledge that upon fulfilling certain conditions, they will receive a pay rise or promotion to a more senior position.
Flexibility in terms of time and space
Offering time and space-related flexibility often does not cost the employer anything but it is a crucial benefit that especially these days employees appreciate. Devise a system of home office, a flexible starting and finishing time for working hours, and help employees harmonise their personal and work life.
