Overcoming Challenges: Encourage more employees to participate in the global donation program Why do we need a global donation program? Promoting internal involvement in various social and donation initiatives is essential for fostering a sense of corporate responsibility and cultivating a positive company culture that extends beyond business objectives. Are approvals a must? Since this is a donations program, which involves employees receiving 100 points directly from their managers, there is no need to add approvals. Phase 1: Planning Step 1: Prior to initiating the campaign, create a list of your goals, desired outcomes, and a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to effectively monitor the program’s success. Example GOAL: Becoming a socially responsible company Example KPIs: #1: Number of Employees that Participated #2: Total Redeemed Points for Donations Phase 2: Setup Here’s how to set up the program within JobPts. Step 1: Create transparent program guidelines and description Each program should contain a description and representative image. Make sure you have this created so you can upload it within JobPts. Here’s an example: A points-based program where employees earn 100 points, which they can later exchange in the JobPts rewards catalog for donations to a charity of their choice. Step 2: Configure the program: set up program eligibility, points, and approval processes. After receiving 100 points from their managers, employees can redeem these points in the JobPts rewards catalog to make donations to a charity of their preference. The rewards catalog offers a range of choices for employees to donate their points and create a positive impact. Companies can include collaborations with local or global charities in the reward catalog upon reaching an agreement with Semos Cloud. Important: For sustainable recognition and rewards programs, prioritize user experience and simplicity. In the Semos Cloud system, 1 point equals 1 USD. Our rewards catalog has no additional costs and markups, ensuring both you and your employees receive full value. We also adjust purchasing power based on the local currency and living standards for fairer rewards. Phase 3: Communication Effective communication is crucial for success. Ensure your communication plan covers before, during, and after the program implementation phases. Tailor it to include a mix of digital and offline channels for maximum impact.
