The ROI of Employee Appreciation: What the Data Shows

Employee appreciation isn’t merely a “nice to have”. It’s a high-impact strategy that drives real business results. It’s a business decision with clear returns on productivity, morale and retention.

Here’s what the numbers reveal:

Sixty-nine percent of employees indicate they would exert extra effort if they felt genuinely appreciated. In another survey, among those aged 18 to 24, this figure rises to an impressive 85%!

Recognition-rich cultures experience a 31% reduction in turnover.

So what does meaningful recognition look like? It’s not another branded mug. It’s thoughtful, curated and sustainable.

At Peace Lily Gift, we believe thoughtful corporate gifting isn’t just a kind gesture, it’s a powerful business strategy. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, welcoming new hires or retaining top talent, intentional gifting shows your team they matter.

Our Dream Dreamer Spa Hamper Gift is a popular choice among HR leaders and culture champions. It is made with eco-friendly, UK-crafted products. It’s the perfect reminder that care and wellbeing are at the heart of your culture.

Why it works:

● Boosts morale and motivation post-appraisal
● Reinforces team values after big projects
● Enhances onboarding with warmth and intention
● Supports sustainable business goals.

Let’s move beyond basic “thank yous”. Recognition rooted in values fosters connection, performance and brand loyalty – inside and out.

We don’t just deliver gifts – we help you build culture, recognition and trust. Let’s make appreciation a habit, not an afterthought.
