Why celebrate work anniversaries?

Service anniversaries provide a powerful opportunity to show appreciation, reinforce a sense of belonging, and remind employees that their contributions truly matter.

It's a built-in way to say thanks every year.

Engagement is a buzzword for a reason—because engaged employees are productive, happy employees. But it’s not just about business outcomes, engaged employees actually drive better outcomes from top to bottom.

This integration to our Slack channel… makes it very easy and seamless. There’s this running log of all of these shout outs, which I think is really powerful.
Zach Makoutz
Sr. Manager, Category Sales Product

Since implementing Awardco, we’ve saved at least 30 hours a month that used to be spent manually tracking, purchasing, and mailing gifts. Now it’s all automated—and more empowering for our associates.
Selia Wood
AVP, Talent & Engagement
The Nest Schools
 
 
Automation is something that is really important for us—we try to automate as much as we can so that we can focus on what's important. And Awardco's automation and integrations have fit in perfectly.
Brittany Madonna
Senior VP of Marketing & Communications

When I pitched Awardco to our leadership team, I shared the risk of losing connection as we grow. I framed it as a strategic need. Their response? ‘Stop talking. Just do it.'
Melissa York
SVP, Head of People & Culture
Greenfield Global
 
 
As we try to build a strong culture, we want to take a more modern approach. Partnering with Awardco helped us to put that together. So even though we are spread out, we do get to feel like we are One Greenfield.
Ashley Cato
Vice President People and Culture
Lockton
 
 
When I joined Lockton, we didn’t have a recognition platform. It was the first thing I pushed for—because I’ve seen firsthand how important it is. People want to feel seen and validated.
Selia Wood
AVP, Talent & Engagement
I love the customisation of the platform and the constant innovation. There are constant evolutions and enhancements being released to keep our solution cutting edge.

It only takes a moment to thank someone, but that recognition stays with them and inspires them to do even better.

We have an on-the-spot recognition programme where leaders can immediately recognise a CRP for demonstrating safe behaviour. That recognition is visible across the organisation, 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.
Roshan Varghese
Sr. Director, Environment, Health & Safety
PMG
 
 
Our recognition was all over the place before. Awardco brought everything into one centralised, impactful platform.

The ability to customise the platform and call it 'MyKUDOS' made it feel like a true extension of our brand and culture.

I’ve been recognised myself, and it felt wonderful—surprising, but also deeply motivating. I’ve also had the privilege of recognising teams for delivering major projects, which brought departments together in a unified sense of achievement.

All of our locations have TV screens in some area of the facility. When you look up at the screen, not only do you get to see the recognition that you may have shared with somebody or that you may have received, but you get to see it across the company. Having a programme that enables that to be done and shared is very special.
Ashley Cato
Vice President People and Culture

You get the same feeling when you are recognised as when you are recognising someone else. Awardco gives you that platform and makes it so easy to gain those feelings. I love seeing my team being recognised or my leaders recognising the teams.

Awardco's platform and programme are far and away the best I've seen in my career. Based on behavioral science with an intuitive user interface (and truly customizable reporting!), it is a game changer in employee engagement and appreciation.
