Flex Time

• The personal lives of employees do not end when they walk through the door of your facilities. To enable employees to take care of things in other areas of their lives, offer flexible time schedules. Allow staff members to come in early and leave early, take partial vacation days, make up hours at home, or set up a remote work scheme. By doing this, you can reduce distraction when they are on the job.
  
  

Open Communication

• A workplace that has an open, friendly flow of communication makes a more comfortable working environment for staff and managers. Establish a tradition of positive feedback, send personal thank-you notes and take an interest in employees' personal lives. Encourage participation and engagement by asking for employees' ideas and putting them into action. Talk openly about problems to create a sense of transparency and trust.
  
  

Training and Development

• Even a happy employee will get bored if they are not able to grow as a professional. Offer ways for your staff to move ahead, whether it is encouraging cross-training in complementary skills, offering reimbursement for continuing education or taking suggestions for development activities. By providing employees with continuous opportunities to grow and be challenged, you can keep them engaged in your business, and you will have a well-rounded team.
  
  

Comfortable Work Space

• Help your employees do their job in a comfortable, safe manner by tailoring work spaces to individual job duties. Consider ergonomics, convenience and comfort. Design the overall office space to be welcoming and friendly to create a homey sense, and if you can, make your employees' lives easier by offering facilities like a kitchen, break room or even a day care.
  
  

Fun

• To keep employees smiling, offer the chance to have fun at work, particularly in the middle of a tough or stressful time. Organize group activities, play silly workplace games on occasion, and reward the team with unexpected surprise lunches. Encourage employees to personalize their space and use relaxation spaces as comfortable work areas. You might even provide outlets for stress, like a basketball court or a video game station; things that inspire creativity and relaxation can motivate employees to work harder
