This will be a pivotal holiday season for so many retailers following an extremely difficult last six months. To win back customers who have been reticent to spend during the global pandemic, retailers will need a fully engaged and motivated staff who are mindful of the new challenges confronting them. In-store safety will be top of mind for both consumers and employees like never before.
Employees will be under tremendous pressure to drive sales, keep customers safe, and follow rigid health protocols – all with the backdrop of high unemployment and a potential second wave of the global pandemic.
To support their staff, retailers will be looking to offer meaningful and impactful benefits that will help ease the stresses of their valued workers.
Many top companies including Kroger and Tractor Supply have found success in motivating and retaining employees by offering a dynamic pay experience – a no-cost solution that is improving the financial health of employees.
