The human spirit is a competitive one. In every industry, there are awards given to the top companies, and we like to simultaneously receive these awards and give these awards to others who deserve to be recognized. The world of “going green” is no different. Competition is healthy and natural, so why shouldn’t we recognize those making a positive green difference?
In early November, MillerCoors received a number of Energy Saver awards from the U.S. Department of Energy. (Read more at Environmental Leader.) Why do awards just have to go to companies though?
Have you consider awards – or even rewards – for your employees?
It is one thing to ask your employees to print fewer emails and shut down their computers every night, but it is another thing to offer incentives for doing so. This isn’t grade school, so a chart with star stickers isn’t exactly appropriate, but what about a green employee of the month? Or annual green bonuses? Or..well you tell me!
Do you offer incentive to your employees for going green?
