3 killer job perks your employees would love

Your employees want to feel supported and appreciated. Most jobs provide some benefits, even if it’s just the standard ones. But what are some things you could do to really show how much you care? Here are three interesting job perks that you probably haven’t often thought about…

Free grub: You’re not Google, so providing free gourmet food on a daily basis probably isn’t possible. But even if you’re a smaller CU, you can still provide this perk every now and again. While it’s not saving them a ton of cash, having an occasional lunch catered can mean a lot to your employees. Doughnut Wednesdays or Pizza Fridays has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?

Help with student loans: Most people leave college with at least some student loan debt. Some have a ton. Helping employees pay off student loans is a growing trend. Helping reduce the stress that comes from paying back loans could keep your employees around for a long time.

Vacay on your birthday: The average business doesn’t let you off of work for your birthday. Some people actually like working on their birthday, but most people would probably enjoy having a “me” day. What’s better than a day with no responsibilities that you can spend doing anything you’d like? This one is probably the cheapest on your budget but may make your employees very excited for that one day every year.
