  1. SHRM Survey Findings: Employee Recognition Programs, Fall 2012 In collaboration with and commissioned by Globoforce November 15, 2012

  2. Introduction Twice a year, Globoforce® conducts a survey with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM®), the world’s largest association devoted to human resource management. Our goal is to elicit trends among HR leaders and practitioners about what challenges they face and what strategies help them conquer those challenges. This August, we surveyed 6,000 HR professionals in organizations with 500 or more employees and asked them to share their experiences and practices. This fall 2012 survey uncovers new insights on emerging employee recognition trends and best practices. We looked in particular at these questions: • What are the top issues facing HRmanagement today? • Is it important that core values be aligned with recognition? • How are emerging practices like peer-to-peer recognition affecting engagement? • What is the impact of recognition on “employee enablement”? • What are the best practices for spending on a recognition program? 2

  3. Key Findings • How many organizations currently have an employee recognition program in place? A majority of organizations (77%) reported that they currently have an employee recognition program in place. One-half (50%) of the organizations that have a program in place also indicated that it is tied to the organization’s values. • What are some of the reasons organizations implement an employee recognition program? Most organizations use employee recognition programs to improve employee morale and to increase employee engagement (79%). Other common reasons are to reinforce their organization’s values (59%) and to reduce employee turnover rates (34%). • What changes have organizations experienced after they have implemented an employee recognition program? Over one-half (51%)of the organizations reported an increase in employee engagement after implementing an employee recognition program. Some organizations also reported an increase in customer satisfaction (35%) and employee productivity (30%). 3

  4. Key Findings (continued) • How often do organizations conduct employee performance reviews? Seventy-four percent of the organizations reported they conduct an annual performance review. Only 21% conduct reviews semiannually, and very few (3%) conduct quarterly reviews. • How do organizations describe their performance review process? Most organizations that conduct employee performance reviews (72%) believe they provide constructive feedback to most of the employees in the organization, and nearly one-half (47%) feel their performance reviews offer an accurate reflection of the employees’ contributions. • What are some HR challenges organizations are currently facing? Succession planning has become a common HR challenge (41%) as well as employee engagement (40%) and culture management (30%). Other HR challenges organizations indicate experiencing include recruitment (28%) and performance management challenges(28%). 4
