If we retain a teacher, that’s 20 students we get to serve. Going from 45% turnover to 8% means we’ve kept 85–90 more staff. That’s an incredible impact on both our children and our budget.

We have an on-the-spot recognition program where leaders can immediately recognize a CRP for demonstrating safe behaviour. That recognition is visible across the organization, which motivates others to do the same. Instead of focusing on what went wrong, we’ve shifted our culture to spotlight what’s being done right—and that’s encouraged everyone to follow that path.

Our frontline workers are the heart of what we do and the heart of our customer experience. We launched Microsoft Teams for all employees. We have the Awardco interface added to the platform, so our employees can now recognize each other directly from their phones on their app while they're working. If they see a great job, they can give an immediate shout-out and make that difference.

Recognition through myKudos [Awardco] is one of the most positive aspects of PMG. It showcases employee contributions across the company, helping everyone feel valued and appreciated. Public recognition doesn't just acknowledge hard work—it motivates others to push further and strive for excellence.

We offer a variety of programs to ensure we include all our employees. Three of these are tied directly to our core values: our peer-to-peer program, our manager-led programs, and our safety programs—such as our Safety All-Stars, which is a monthly automated award.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can Awardco provide automated, payroll-ready reports or feeds?
 

Yes. Awardco can provide reporting and supported integrations for payroll and finance processes.

Depending on the organization’s systems, data may be delivered through a native integration, API, SFTP file feed, scheduled report, or another supported method. Reports may include employee information, program details, award or redemption amounts, dates, taxable status, earning codes, cost centres, and other configured fields.

The available fields, delivery cadence, tax logic, and integration method depend on the organization’s payroll systems, countries, data structure, and implementation requirements.

‍

How will finance reconcile awards, redemptions, invoices, returns, and cost centres?
 

Awardco reporting can help finance teams compare platform activity with budgets, redemption transactions, account balances, and invoices.

Depending on the organization’s configuration, reports may show who received or redeemed points, what was redeemed, the value and date of the transaction, program and cost-centre information, returns, terminations, and remaining balances.

Invoice timing and reconciliation rules can vary by funding model, reward type, fulfillment process, and account setup. Finance teams should confirm the exact accounting workflow and reporting fields during implementation.

Can we offer employee choice while controlling cash, tax, and compliance exposure?
 

Organizations can configure reward programs and catalogs around their financial, tax, and compliance policies.

Depending on the organization and country, employees may be offered options such as gift cards, products, experiences, charitable giving, merchandise, or cash-based rewards where supported. Finance teams can use program rules, catalog controls, approval workflows, and reporting to help manage which options are available.

Reward value and tax treatment vary by reward type and jurisdiction, so organizations should review the available options with their finance, payroll, and tax teams.
