Between you and me, table football is fun, but a company can promote the well-being of its employees in other ways... Switch Up gives you 7 ideas and tips to implement in your workplace, for an even more fulfilled team!
The first important point is that you and your employees must be able to work in a welcoming environment that is adapted to your needs. The office is your main place of work, so design it so that you feel comfortable: layout of desks, green plants, open curtains for more light, etc.
A quiet place to take a "real" break is also an idea to keep in mind. Finally, a room dedicated to coffee breaks is ideal for encouraging exchanges, and therefore well-being. It is a place for exchange that can unite teams in a process of sharing and collaboration.
Secondly, we advise you to dialogue and communicate with your employees: feedback, desires, needs, this encourages transparency and the transmission of information. This also allows the employee to feel listened to. Why not set up a system of small regular meetings with each employee, in order to discuss both professional and personal matters, if the employee so wishes. Getting to know each other in a different way, listening to each other and taking an interest...this may be the key to a happy employee who is at ease with his or her manager.
7 out of 10 employees do not feel that they have been recognised at their fair value, according to a study by Deloitte and Cadremploi. Yet recognition is considered an important lever for influencing the quality of life at work.
Participating in an escape game together, a seminar, or training sessions led by experienced HR advisors... Why not set up these activities within your company? This can also be done through sport or through moments of relaxation. All means are good to relax, but also to promote team cohesion!
