Hence, employees prefer a good wellness program in their organization which keeps them healthy, fit, energetic and motivated throughout the day.

2.  Performance Bonus

Rewarding the employees now and then will increase their due diligence considerably, and hence increase the overall effort from the manpower in the organization itself to improve business performance. When an employee has rewarded a bonus for the best performance, it will obviously encourage him/her to continue doing quality work.
