Customers are saying:
"I have been using this employee recognition program for several years now and if used correctly (so meaningful recognitions, detailed narrative of what is being recognized, contemporaneous and genuine) it boosts the employee morale but it is also a very useful tool for employee retention. Employees who are recognized publicly for a job well done, tend to be more engaged with the company and less sensitive to advances from competitors." - Karen H., Enterprise business
"Workhuman Social Recognition makes it easy for you to see and feel the difference that you make. Having your team members and leadership recognize you, and even reward you in a social, yet professional setting is a great confidence boost. That confidence improves morale and productivity." - Meghan S., Enterprise business
When you opt for recognition done right from Workhuman, you don’t have to settle for second-rate recognition.
