Watch our experiment about appreciation in the workplace
We asked employees if they felt appreciated at work…
Nominate an Employee You Appreciate.
Showing appreciation makes our workplaces better places to work, so make your valued employees feel appreciated today by nominating them for one of our five awards.
Of course, simply nominating a great employee will be a public statement that will bestow your appreciation, but imagine the kudos bestowed if that employee is to be a finalist, or a winner! This will provide an opportunity not only for the individual to celebrate, but is an award the whole organisation can be proud of.
Showing Appreciation goes a long way.
Creating a culture of appreciation greatly aids employee engagement, positivity and productivity, resulting in great outcomes for organisations.
According to Forbes, highly engaged employees result in:
MORE PROFITABILITY FOR THEIR COMPANY
LESS EMPLOYEE TURNOVER

The Bonfire Employee Appreciation Awards give recognition to the unsung heroes that underpin the success of our organisations in New Zealand. Show your appreciation by nominating a great employee today.
