Sometimes, office morale drops due to unexpected situations. Then again, sometimes it drops due to inherent stress or difficult working conditions. A decrease in morale doesn’t always spell disaster for a company, but it’s never good news.
If you notice this situation in your office, your next step should be finding ways to boost morale and improve employee job satisfaction. One great place to start? Setting up office snack delivery.
Healthy Snack Delivery at the Office
Snacks are not all made the same. From the base ingredients to the manufacturing practices, food product quality is as diverse as the names gracing the front packaging. That’s why you should look for healthy snacks and skip over the ones chock full of filler ingredients and empty calories.
Having healthy snacks delivered to the office can even help your staff work more efficiently and with greater confidence. After all, appreciation – in this case, shown through careful selection of healthy snacks – is a sure-fire way to let employees know they truly matter.
How Does Office Snack Delivery Improve Morale?
You might not think office snack delivery and employee morale are connected, but they are. In fact, providing healthy snacks for staff is one of the top ways managers and company leaders show their thanks. According to an article from the Society for Human Resource Management, food – and free food to boot – brings people together and helps set the stage for a stronger work community.
When your employees can sit around a break room table and enjoy healthy snacks, they’ll be relaxed, refreshed and more likely to engage in impromptu discussions. Chatting often leads to grassroots change, as Corporate Essentials CEO, Judson Kleinman, reveals in a 2017 company article.
He notes that “Improving your break room and break room offerings can be a powerful way to say “thank you” to your talent. The right space stocked with the right snacks and drinks can be a cultural hub for informal learning, culture hacking, inclusivity and fun at work.”
Healthy Snacks and Productivity at Work
Alongside improved employee morale comes increased productivity, and healthy snacks for the office certainly play a part in helping these goals come to fruition. Productive employees have the energy and the focus to complete their tasks quickly and confidently.
They know their stuff, and they work to do their part in achieving company success, whether it’s writing a report, undertaking a survey or even presenting a complex product design.
Your employees want to be productive, but sometimes, common obstacles thwart them from checking another item off the to-do list. Help them help themselves when you supply healthy snacks in the break room. After all, the food they eat affects how they perform their job roles.
As author and psychologist Ron Friedman says in his Harvard Business Review article, “What You Eat Affects Your Productivity”: “If you’re serious about achieving top workplace performance, making intelligent decisions about food is essential.”
