Why Award Long Service?

Recruiting and training a new employee can be a costly affair, so it is important to retain your staff for as long as possible.

Long service awards are no longer regarded as a precursor to retirement and awarded with a gold watch or clock. But instead seen as a standalone, positive aid to staff retention, by recognising long-term loyalty, service and commitment.

When's the best time to implement a long service award scheme?

The average time an employee stays with an organisation is decreasing. As a result long service award schemes have had to evolve to keep pace with changes in working patterns. 

Nowadays schemes are starting much lower, with long service often awarded from 5 years, with more regular intervals such as every 5 years thereafter.
