Happiness is not only needed at home but also at work. Everyone deserves to feel happy. Happy because they have a fairly high salary, happy because they have colleagues who support one another, happy because they have a good and wise leader, and happy because they have a clear career path. Even though everyone’s indicators of happiness will be different, in the end, everyone will strive to find happiness in life.
Maintaining the happiness level of the employees means that the company can reduce the number of things, which are:
- The time it takes to post job advertisements on several job sites to find replacements for employees who have resigned.
- Time allotted for interviewing new candidates.
- Wasted time because the company needed to train new employees after the old employees had resigned and left the company.
- Time and budget have to be allocated for the new employees.
If the company can not retain employees better, the recruitment process will continue to happen and thus create a never-ending cycle. The Human Resource Division will lose time because they need to find and train new employees to get familiarized with the company. But they won’t only experience time loss, the company will also suffer financially.
It is important to keep in mind that the employees’ happiness will be correlated with the company’s success. The benefits of happiness won’t only be felt by the employees, but also by the company as a whole. Here are the things that a company can do to ensure happiness among its employees:
- Hire a supportive leader to manage the team.
- Provide employees with proper salaries and bonuses.
- Ensuring employees have access to health insurance.
- Do regular office or warehouse cleaning to ensure employees’ healthiness.
The Benefits of Keeping Employees Happy
When employees feel happy working at the company, it will help to retain them better. More than that, here are the 5 main benefits that companies and leaders will get, when they can maintain the happiness level of their employees.

Increasing Employee Productivity.
When employees feel happy working, they will enjoy the days spent in the office. A lot of work is indeed troublesome and prone to make us feel dizzy. But if we have a good leader who is supportive and appreciative of the team, it will inspire gratefulness and happiness within the team. Not only that, but the number of employees taking sick leave will also decrease. All of this can help to increase employee productivity. When work productivity increases, the profit that will be obtained by the company will also increase as a result.

Employees Will Strive to Work Better
If the company treats its employees well, employees will feel respected and valued. That way, they will be more enthusiastic at work and make more contributions to the company. It’s a simple concept, people will give something positive in return for something good they receive.
Just imagine if the employees were not treated well. Such as they are often scolded by their bosses for small mistakes, and even mistakes they never made at all. Will the employees be happy? Of course not!
With the good treatment they receive, employees will not only work for their own selves. But more than that they also work for the company’s benefit. Ensuring that your employees have this high level of dedication is important if you want to improve your company’s success.

Easy for Companies to Get New Innovations
Research says that there is a very strong link between happiness and creativity. A study found that employees who feel happy when working at their current company’s will be more positive and open. Thus, they will be able to think creatively and produce great innovations for the company.
This situation occurs because the employees will have the assurance that their ideas are not limited by their leader or the tight policies that apply within the company. They are free to express themselves, and even with the smallest ideas they give, they still get good appreciation from the leaders.
-
Better Customer Service
If employees are treated very well by the company, they will feel comfortable, feel respected, appreciated, and of course, feel happy. This feeling will encourage them to treat other people, especially the customers very well. Ensuring better customer service is really important to ensure company success. If the customers are not satisfied with the service that we provided, it can lower company credibility.
Keeping your employees happy is really important to ensure success for the company. Happy employees mean that the work can feel less burdensome, and a positive work environment can be created as a result!
