Employees Make Companies Better

Employees are the lifeblood of any successful operation. The impact of a cohesive and professional working team cannot be understated. Without hardworking employees, any operation is going to struggle. 

People work hard when they feel appreciated and valued, and any company that can make their employees feel valued is going to get the best work possible. Everyone wants to be valued, and working for a company that values you as an employee and as a person leads to you producing good work and being professionally satisfied.

How Do Companies Show That They Value Employees?

Companies dedicated to improving worker satisfaction and decreasing turnover will tell you that on paper, valuing employees should be easy. In practice, it’s a little more difficult. The most effective strategy for companies to value employees is a mix of recognition and rewards, both tangible and intangible.

A good salary can do wonders for employee satisfaction, but it’s not enough. To truly value the people who make an operation possible, companies must offer comprehensive benefits to cover an employee’s needs.

While not exhaustive, companies that value employees are often seen offering a variety of benefits to their employees.

Work-Life Balance

An employee’s life isn’t just about their work. A company that values their employees understands that all of their team members have lives off the job too. These companies provide avenues for flexibility and give paid time off and paid holidays to boot.

If you have a family, good companies work with you to make sure you are there when it’s most important. Have concerns about your schedule? Good companies will work with you to figure out a solution.

Companies that value employees also value their employees free-time and make sure to include that conversation as part of their hiring process.

Health Benefits

An employee’s life at work is heavily impacted by their health, both physical and emotional. A healthy employee is a happy employee. Good companies offer a comprehensive health package that includes health, vision, dental, and life insurance as well as an employee assistance program.

Ensuring the overall health and well-being of employees is vital to the long-term sustainability of any operation, and good companies know this.

Continuing Education

Making sure that there are avenues for continued growth and learning for employees is paramount for successful companies. Staying sharp and learning any updates to industry standards is not only beneficial to each employee, but also to the company.

Companies with an eye toward the future know that by investing in their employee’s education, they’re also investing in the company’s future success.

Mervis Launches New Web Presence

After decades of being a trusted partner to companies and recyclers throughout the Midwest and beyond, the team at Mervis is excited to move forward into the future with the launch of our new and updated web presence. As we continue along a path of growth, it was important to invest in a new website to more effectively communicate our offerings, share information with recyclers and provide details to those interested in joining the team here at Mervis.

We’ve highlighted the wonderful team here, and showcased our focus on culture with an expanded section detailing the culture and benefits of working with Mervis. Now, it’s easier than ever before for people to learn more about a potential career here and reach out with any questions they may have. Each Mervis location is different, and with a convenient and easy to use map tool on our homepage, visitors will be able to see which location is nearest to them and see individualized information about each.

Continuing our dedication to serving our communities, we’ve expanded the information we offer to individuals interested in recycling. Multiple sections of our website have been expanded to more thoroughly cover each type of recyclable material that we offer, and provide more thorough knowledge so that any visitor can know exactly what types of materials we accept and how they should go about depositing those materials. For potential customers, we answer questions on how the process of buying from us works. Current clients can log in and conduct business through a convenient portal.

Underneath all of these new features, our dedication to honest practices remains the same. With this new web presence, we’re excited to keep moving forward as one of the leading recyclers in the Midwest and see what the future brings.
