Concierge Services Helping Employees And The Bottom Line








Imagine arriving at work only to receive a phone call from your son or daughter at school saying he or she left an important assignment at home that morning and needs it right away. Then your boss stops by and asks whether you would mind taking over an upcoming fund-raising drive. And last night, your washing machine quit working, and you need to arrange for a repair person to fix it as soon as possible. Wouldn't it be nice if you could just wave a magic wand and have all of these things taken care of for you?

Finding the time to run errands, have a home appliance repaired, take the car in for an oil change, or make vacation arrangements, much less do the grocery shopping and laundry or taking on an additional project at work, can be hard when you work full time. Employers realize that balancing work and personal life is challenging for their employees, especially those who work in the demanding healthcare industry.

Many employers today are looking for creative ways to make the work environment desirable to a diverse workforce. Companies today are finding that offering employees concierge services fits the bill.
In the face of shortages of qualified workers, many organizations want to retain the ones they have. A low retention rate can mean large expenditures for recruiting, hiring, and training new employees. Because today's workforce is diverse and spans four generations of employees, providers need to take a creative approach to retaining employees. Each generation of employees has its own reasons for choosing to take a job and then choosing to keep it. Although younger workers may be more vocal about it, one common factor important to all four generations is the ability to balance their work and their personal lives.
