How can employers ensure that recognition and rewards are not only fair and equitable, but also effectively motivate and engage employees to continue performing at their best?

Employers can ensure that recognition and rewards are fair and equitable by establishing clear criteria and processes for determining who receives recognition and rewards. They can also solicit feedback from employees to ensure that the recognition and rewards are perceived as fair. To effectively motivate and engage employees, employers can tailor recognition and rewards to individual preferences and provide opportunities for employees to have a voice in the recognition and rewards process. Additionally, employers can ensure that recognition and rewards are timely, specific, and meaningful to the recipient.
