Many HR teams know employee recognition is important, but finding the perfect system to help facilitate a robust program is key. SEF Energy knew they needed a system that checked all the boxes, and they also knew they needed leadership buy-in. They turned to Awardco for help.
The top challenge SEF Energy faced was finding an employee recognition software that was easy, simple, and intuitive for everyone (including the employees who don’t work at a desk). And with three different companies and hundreds of employees, that was no easy task.
“One of the biggest things we were looking for was a platform that’s easily accessible for all of our employees. We needed it to be simple and intuitive, and not take a lot of training.” - Lauren Long, HR Operations Manager
SEF Energy integrated the Awardco platform with their new HR system, automated their programs and processes, and used Awardco’s mobile capabilities to reach every employee. Now it’s easier than ever for leaders and peers to recognize anyone they want.
SEF Energy wanted their employees to be able to choose their own rewards—that’s the only way to make rewards and recognition really meaningful (and to ensure their recognition budget wasn’t wasted on unwanted rewards).
Because Awardco integrates with Amazon and offers millions of reward options, employees get to choose a personalized reward that is most meaningful to them. While SEF Energy used to simply give cash, and they still offer a cash-out option, cash isn’t the most popular redemption option anymore—people love choosing personalized physical rewards for themselves.
SEF Energy’s reward budget is now spent wholly on actually rewarding their employees, not on unexpected markups or hidden fees.
SEF Energy takes pride in their culture and values, and they wanted to reinforce the behaviors and attitudes they hope to see in their workforce. To that end, SEF Energy was able to create five different recognition programs for employees and managers to use, such as a spotlight program, service award program, and an excellence program.
Each program is tailored and customized to support their core values and their mission. And with both peer-to-peer and manager-to-employee recognition capabilities, everyone at SEF Energy can give a shoutout to those who deserve it.
“Awardco allows everything to support our core values and our mission, which is very important to us because that strengthens our culture.” - Lauren Long
