Dear All,
We need to start employee engagement activities to be conducted on a regular basis. This initiative needs to be taken as employees are generally feeling low in morale these days, and we need to pep them up by keeping them involved. It need not be any massive event like a party or something, but can be small things that can be conducted once a month or every two months to keep employees engaged. It's also not necessary that we only need to conduct the activities; we can create a group by calling for nominations and assigning responsibilities to others as well.
Would you please share your ideas and help me out with this assignment? I am looking forward to your responses.

Dear Vandana and Urvashi,
It is very simple to motivate the workforce. Your organizations must be certified by any international standard like social compliance or ISO. Provide them with training on fire fighting and first aid, and distribute some rewards or awards in front of others. Publish their names on a notice board with their picture. This will help you reduce accidents, injuries, and housekeeping issues.
Furthermore, it will act as a bridge for grievances between management and the workforce.

Hi Sohail,
Thank you for your reply. It would be great if you could share a few more ideas. I had considered giving the best employee of the month award at the local level as one technique for motivation, but I am looking for many more ideas.
I appreciate your input and any additional suggestions you may have.

Hi Urvashi,
Yeah, it seems great, but in what category are you going to give them the award? The activity must be in favor of management and employees.
You can consider organizing a grand feast for all workers and staff during any religious event. It is a good practice; you should try it once as it will help you to connect with the labor force. Remember, do not try to make them friends but be humble. If you need any help, feel free to contact me through

Hi,
Indulge your employees in some theatrical play. Take up a comedy play and assign the roles to some good enthusiastic employees. This way, the employees become bonded and feel at ease with each other and let go of their tension.

Urvashi,
Please read "The Fred Factor" by Mark Sanborn. We implemented an employee recognition program based on his book. It is a peer-to-peer recognition program. We call it the FRED of the Month. Essentially, the FRED OF THE MONTH is anyone who is witnessed going above and beyond the call of duty. What is great is that it is the peers who are recognizing peers. All the FREDs are recognized weekly by our commander, and out of those Freds, we nominate a FRED of the month. This person's picture is posted outside the cafeteria, and they are given a wonderful parking space. Great book!

Dear All,
I have come up with certain ideas, although I'm not sure if they are right or not. I would require your expert comments on this.
1. We can give the Employee of the Month award, one in the main office and the other in the Satellite office. We can give a certificate or a memo to these employees.
2. Have a central area to share good news. Maybe we can have a soft board where we can put anything to motivate employees like birthdays, births, weddings, promotions, kids' achievements, upcoming events, photos of various functions, and awards that employees receive.
3. Have a monthly quiz over email, and the person who gives the correct answer will be given the prize.
4. On a monthly basis, we can have a get-together. Every month we have a few people joining or transferring, and at the end or start of each month, we can spare a few hours to organize this event. All the new joiners, irrespective of whatever level they join at, are asked to perform something and introduce themselves to all the oldies. If well prepared, it is a lot of fun and helps in bonding new joiners.
5. We can ask all the winners to share their success stories with everyone. For example, people who receive Excellence/R&R or Employee of the Month should share their experiences with all.
6. Parties - We need to request the Regional Manager to identify a group responsible for party arrangements, and the committee keeps changing. Maybe we can assign the task department-wise.
7. We can have certain presentations like on stress management, communication, personality development every month, or the Regional Manager can select any employee and ask them to give a presentation or speak on anything the employee likes, such as cricket. We can include this task in the monthly activities.
8. Feedback Cards or Name Change - We will ask employees to come up with suggestions to improve work or any process. The person who gives the maximum suggestions or does anything to improve their task or another department's task needs to share all the ideas. It can be anything. The Regional Manager can take that idea forward, and it can be implemented if he feels it is good enough. That person will get a feedback card or a certificate, and their name will be displayed on the soft board. I feel it will create a sense of belonging among employees.
9. Office heads need to address their ideas with the team, expectations, and the plan going forward.

What I can suggest is to:
- Identify the labor mentality.
- Identify the labor strengths and weaknesses.
- Identify the common language to guide them.
- Bifurcate the departments and specify material usage in each department.
- Make employees understand the cost of materials they are using and why they should use them consistently.
- Help them realize the pros and cons of damaging materials and products in the factory.
- Assign responsibilities that rotate so they understand the pressure and difficulties of handling them.
- Provide proper encouragement and appreciation when they do a good job with some gift articles.
- Provide materials for them to read and act upon or have someone explain and help them implement.
- Initially, there may be high resistance, but it will work smoothly later on.
This is the approach I have implemented in a bread manufacturing company, and I have achieved positive results from it.

Hi,
You can start by identifying some basic problems that the employees are facing, and then you can create employee clubs with your employees. In this way, the same set of employees who generally complain about the lack of facilities will be responsible for resolving the problems. The employees will surely feel involved. However, do ensure that these groups work effectively, and HR is responsible for ensuring that their problems and suggestions are both heard and implemented.
All the best.
