1. Four-day workweek

Give your employees a 4 day work week! A few times a year we are lucky enough to have a long weekend. Imagine if this situation happened every week! This is an extension of work flexibility options. Employees would work 80% of the time for 100% of the pay. The advantages of setting up the aforementioned work model are two-sided. Among them is primarily an increase in productivity! A rested employee has more enthusiasm for work and at the same time the love for the company as such deepens.

3. Financial support

Salary is not a benefit, but financial bonuses for work are considered to be. Employers should focus on those that are most in demand. These are primarily food allowances or pension insurance. Many employees have a problem with prioritizing savings instead of immediate - necessary expenses. Motivate them by saying that if they put some amount aside for savings, you will match them with some value.    

4. Child care assistance  

Help with childcare can take many forms such as babysitting, tutoring, college coaching and subsidized child care through employer contributions. As the new year approaches, employer-sponsored child care assistance increases, as do the demands placed on them. If you provide your employees with such benefits, you will increase their work performance, which is of course positive for both parties.
