Employee rewards programs are an important way to let your staff know that you appreciate all their hard work. Choosing meaningful gifts will show them that you are interested in their passions and that you care enough to choose rewards that are personal to them. Additionally, when the rewards are actually appealing to their specific interests, they will be that much more motivated to strive for them by exceeding their targets.

Need some inspiration? Here are 10 refreshing ideas for summer rewards.

  1. Concert tickets

Check out summer concerts in your area, and let them choose one that suits their musical preference.

  1. Outdoor lounge chairs

A relaxing addition to the yard for the hot summer months.

  1. Yeti cooler

Ensure that food and drinks stay cool during all of the summer activities–from road trips to beach picnics to backyard BBQs.

  1. REI gift card

Supply your employees with all of their summer adventure needs with an always useful REI gift card.

  1. Paddle board lessons

Dependent on your location of course, but paddle board lessons are an exciting activity for your employees to try out. And hey, how about a group paddle board lesson with the whole office?

  1. Wireless headphones

Show your employees you care with a pair of Bose wireless headphones. Perfect for using both in and out of the office.

  1. 6-pack of summer beers

For the beer lovers in the office. Put a little extra care into selecting local, seasonal beers that your employee will love.

  1. Bottle of rosé

For a beer alternative, offer a nice bottle of rosé to be enjoyed on a warm summer evening.

  1. Amazon Kindle

Encourage on-going learning with an Amazon Kindle. A great companion for sitting poolside or on a long flight.

  1. Dance lessons

Find a local venue that offers dance lessons and give your employee +1 a free lesson of their choice.
