There are many cost-effective ways to boost employee happiness and productivity, but one simple one is to provide office catering or just keep snacks in the kitchen. According to a recent study of 1,000 full-time office workers, only 50% were “extremely” or “very happy” with their jobs. However, that number rose to 66% when companies gave them free food.
Giving your employees food at work can do a lot to boost their mood, which can lead to great results that will help your business’ bottom line.
The following are some ways to get your workers to work harder and why giving them snacks or corporate catering can be good for your business.
Builds relationships and makes it easier to work together
Employees can get together over lunch and start to build stronger, better relationships with each other. They’ll start talking to people from other areas and making friends with them. Talking to people who don’t normally talk to each other could throw light on parts of your business you didn’t know existed or spark new ideas.
Office food can help workers get more done.
It’s a great way for employees to relax.
At work, everyone needs a break, but some people don’t take one. It’s found that more than half of workers eat lunch every day at their job because they’re “too busy” or it’s “easier.”
Employees need breaks to be productive (and stay sane). Giving your staff free lunch once a week or once a month gives them the time they need to re-energize, recover, and get back to work for the rest of the day.
It can make people feel better.
A Glassdoor survey found that giving workers free food can boost morale. A happy employee is an efficient worker. A new study found that workers who are happier are 12% more efficient. That’s great for everyone!
A more healthy team
A healthy worker gets more done and gets sick less often. A healthy food setting can also be created and pushed at work through the food and snacks you choose. It’s too easy to grab a quick lunch that’s high in carbs and bad for you. But if you pack a balanced, healthy lunch, you can increase your brain power by up to 20% and get more done at work!
A well-balanced, healthy meal at work can help:
- Improve your focus
- Makes you feel better
- Helps you fight tiredness and stay awake
- Boost your memory
Order business breakfast catering for the office to get employees more involved and boost morale.
Boost productivity
Along with corporate food catering, you might want to buy your employees a corporate coffee machine so they don’t have to leave the office and wait in line. Coffee also has a lot of other health perks. It clears your thoughts, boosts morale, and makes the workplace a better place to be.
Another great way to boost production is to offer breakfast. Having breakfast in the morning has been shown in many studies to help people concentrate, focus, and remember things better.
