The job market in mid-2023 continues to present challenges to employers of all stripes. And we all know it’s more expensive, time-consuming, and often frustrating to hire new employees compared with keeping the ones we have. We asked our 2023 MVP Award winners what they’re doing to take care of—and retain—their employees.
“Everything we can because they are our greatest asset. We have a great culture and other benefits, including a 5% matching 401(k) and a robust PTO plan. We also pay 70% of our employee’s health-care coverage.”
“We pay for them to go to corporate reunions. We bring our out-of-town managers to Mardi Gras all expenses paid. We send our district manager to several vacations a year, some out of the country. We do the usual Christmas parties and multiple dinner engagements throughout the year.”
“Recently we have taken a more proactive approach to developing a strong leadership and management team across brands and locations to enable them to develop their careers within the company. This has entailed investing significantly in various training and certification programs, backed by a commitment from company resources to further support our team members’ continuing education and certification course ambitions.”
“We do many things. We recently incorporated a new EAP for our employees and their household members. We offer full benefits and a rich PTO policy. We invest heavily in training as well.”
“We promote The EOS Life for our team of doing what you love with people you love, making a huge impact, and being compensated appropriately with time for other passions. We play the great game of business with our team in order to share the business success and align our interests as an organization.”
“Besides the standard of pay, benefits, and bonus, we really preach the importance of establishing that personal relationship with each and every employee, within both our smaller and larger brands.”
“We offer beauty professionals marketing support, price advising, and strategies to help grow their businesses.”
“Listening! We bring in employees from every position to make sure we weigh all angles when making changes.”
