In the UK today, there are record-breaking numbers of women in the workplace who are trying to juggle full-time jobs and the demands of motherhood. And while the high cost of living makes it necessary for these women to work outside of the home, approximately 90 percent of them find the pressure unimaginably difficult.
As an employer, this number should concern you. With such a large number of women in the workplace, businesses will suffer unless efforts are made to make their lives less stressful and more balanced. Here at P&MM, we offer staff recognition programs that are designed to increase job satisfaction and employee retention.
Keeping the above statistic in mind, it should be no surprise that one of our most popular staff recognition programs relates to childcare. Currently, over 100,000 families throughout the UK are taking advantage of ChildCare Plus, a scheme that offers tax breaks to working parents, discounts on childcare and savings on a variety of leisure activities throughout the country, including theme parks, zoos and museums.
When you take the time to initiate staff recognition programs, you're not only providing an excellent service to your valued employees, but you're also increasing the quality of your business. Such recognition programs are sure to boost the morale of working mums, leaving them less dissatisfied and more loyal to you--their employer.
