Recognizing and rewarding employees is an important aspect of maintaining a productive and happy workplace.

Distributing eGift Cards is quick, easy and can be utilized as a valuable tool to increase retention among your workforce. With this in mind, let’s explore the top occasions that are coming up in September, where you can effectively reward your employees with eGift Cards. The next big occasion could be right around the corner so let’s dive right in!

Global Talent Acquisition Day – First Wednesday of September

Finding the right people for the job can be quite a challenging task, luckily for us, we have the eagle-eyed talent scouts to handle it, and that’s what Global Talent Acquisition is all about. From Recruiters and hiring managers to HR professionals and staffers, this day presents the perfect opportunity to show your appreciation through eGift Cards for the team members who have contributed to building and strengthening your workforce.

 

International Day of Charity – 5th of September

A lot can be said about the international and global organizations that maximize their efforts to diminish the world’s problems, having said that, any charitable donation, big or small, can go a long way. So how can you contribute? All you need to do is encourage your workplace to get involved in such things as charity drives, donation drives, or perhaps a volunteer day where employees can contribute their time (rather than money) to a local charity. By getting the team involved, you can create a culture of giving and make it an annual event. Show your appreciation to volunteers by offering them eGift Cards as a ‘thank you’ for their valuable contributions. Ready to get involved?

 

World Programmers’ Day – 12th of September (256th Day of the Year)

Programmers are the backbone of the digital age, driving innovation and creating the tools and technologies that power our daily lives. To honor their contributions, make sure you spend a little time to celebrate World Programmers’ Day with some initiatives, as a way of appreciation. For example, you hold a simple competition where the winners get customized eGift Cards of their choice. Are your developers stressed (Probably!)? You could gift them a spa eGift Card for a day of relaxation to recharge. Whatever the celebration, let’s give thanks to those that built the foundation and keep the wheels spinning.

 

World First Aid Day – Second Saturday of September

First Aid Day is an annual opportunity to stress the importance of first aid in any situation. First aid can save lives, and with a bit of training, you and your team can be the ones to do it. The Saudi Red Crescent Authority states: “The first few minutes of critical injury in a person are the most crucial.” So it’s important to know what to do in dire situations. How? Organize activities (ie: films, presentations, workshops) that teach the basic skills of life-saving such as CPR, broken bones, head injuries, or proper methods to deal with someone who is choking. Having employees understand the foundation of first aid in certain situations can truly be the difference between life and death. Incentivize your team and encourage them to spend some time learning about first aid.

 

Saudi National Day – 23rd of September

There’s nothing more patriotic than celebrating the national day of your home country, which is why we’ve created the Saudi National Day HappyYOU Card.

The Kingdom is celebrating 94 years of culture, history and heritage, and with it, a sense of comradery and pride fills the air from the youngest to the oldest, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, employees and employers, and everything in between. In the Kingdom, work and achievement are praised, encouraging prosperity all across the country and throughout generations. And on the 94th anniversary, there’s no better time to encourage those closest to you to celebrate with flying colors. Distribute the Saudi National Day HappyYOU Card to the team and make this year’s celebrations better than ever.

World Tourism Day – 27th of September

World Tourism Day brings a celebration of awareness within the international community and shows how it affects culture, political, and social values across the globe. The underlying truth to this day is mainly the focus on building connections and understanding diverse cultures. With that in mind, our workplaces are filled with people from all over the world who practice different traditions and norms, and by encouraging your team to experience these cultures, you’ll be able to ensure acceptance and equality among your workforce. A great way to do this is by incentivizing employees to visit local tourist spots to enrich their very own heritage. Give your team the chance to recognize and appreciate cultural diversity in and out of the office!
