Have you ever thought about providing your employees with some non traditional benefits?

In an economy where we can't always afford to pay employees what they would prefer, non traditional benefits can make it a little better for them. These benefits also can help boost morale, keep good employees on board, and attract new employees. Plus, who doesn't want to work for a fun company?

Some examples of Non Traditional Employee Benefits include: 
  1. On site amenities, such as: hair stylists, car washes, masseurs,oil changes, auto mechanics, even gourmet chefs!
  2. On site facilities such as: child care, doggy day care, fitness rooms, pools, spas
  3. Flex time, paternity leave, extended maternity leave, bring your child to work, telecommuting
  4. Fun incentives: such as movie passes, gift certificates, maid service, even trips!
  5. Discounts on auto insurance, home insurance, pet insurance, college savings plans
  6. Free legal counsel and accounting services
  7. Wellness programs such as weight loss, smoking cessation, healthy eating, yoga classes, Zumba, etc.
  8. TV's, DVD players, pool tables, ping pong tables, Foosball tables, Video Game consoles in break areas
  9. Laundry services on site
  10. Free vacation days on birthdays and anniversarys
  11. Movie days with refreshments, amusement park days, pool party days
  12. Company trips to sporting events, art shows, plays
  13. Bring your pet to work days/bring your child to work days
  14. Dress in costume days
  15. Even "heartache leave" when suffering from love-related issues
These are just a few examples of "out of the box" benefits! Some are pretty cool, and others, a little bizzare! But you have to admit, it keeps the workplace exciting and fun, which makes employees want to be there and want to do a good job!
