How to Use Scratch-offs for Employee Recognition Programs

Employee recognition programs are a great way to show your employees that you appreciate their hard work. But sometimes, it can be challenging to come up with new and interesting ideas for recognition.

If this is the case for you, scratch-offs may be the solution you’ve been looking for! In this blog post, we’ll discuss three main ways to use scratch-offs for employee appreciation.

1. Create An Employee Incentive Program Based On Goals

You can set up different levels of rewards, and each time an employee reaches a specific goal, they can scratch off one of the panels to see what prize they’ve won. This could be anything from a day off work to a gift card.

This type of program is great because it not only shows your appreciation for your employee’s hard work, but also encourages them to get on board with any initiatives you have in mind, such as productivity or customer service goals. For example, if you’re looking to improve customer service, you could create a scratch-off where the top prize is a day off work for the employee who provides the best customer service that month.

2. Give To Employees Practicing Safety Habits

With more than 2.7 million nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses reported in 2020, encouraging employees to practice safe habits is more important than ever. Scratch-offs are also great for rewarding safe work habits and reducing the number of workspace injuries or accidents.

For example, if you’re looking to incorporate safety rewards as part of your employee recognition program, then you can set up a scratch-off system that gives prizes to employees who go above and beyond to follow safety protocols or when a certain amount of time goes by without any type of accident. This will not only show your employees that you appreciate their efforts, but it will also help to create a safer workplace.

3. Motivate Employees During Busy Seasons

Employees often have to go above and beyond during busy seasons, such as the holiday season or tax season. If you want to show your appreciation for their hard work during these times, then scratch-offs can be a great way to do this. You can create a scratch-off for each employee that includes different prizes, such as extra vacation days, bonus pay, or gift cards. For example, some Amazon fulfillment centers give these scratchers each week during peak season and prime dates, so their extra work is rewarded and they feel appreciated.

2. Pick a theme: Special date or seasonal?

Summer has a lot of potential opportunities for special dates or the whole season, depending on your business you could take advantage of the next dates:

Benchmark summer dates:

  • Memorial Day (May 30th)
  • 4th of July Labor Day (Sept 5th)

Other observances also include:

  • National Flip Flop Day (Jun 17th)
  • Dog Days of Summer (July 3rd –August 11th)
  • National Ice Cream Month (Month of July)
  • Back to School (Last two weeks of July)
  • National Hot Dog Day (July 20)

Don’t want to make it date-specific? You could use a theme related to the season, like a beach day, summer camp, outdoor activities, or vacation; what else comes to mind when you think of summer in your city or business?

3. Make it exciting: Prizes and odds.

Not everyone needs to win a million dollars or a brand-new car. Depending on your business, a free sample of your premium products or $100 gift cards can be worth your clients’ excitement. We do recommend having as many winners as possible in a promotion. Even if it’s a small discount or promotional item, your customers, employees, and event assistants will appreciate and remember you for it. Ask yourself if you’d be excited to redeem the prizes you are offering.
