Recognition Program Administration

How companies outsource the day-to-day work of running recognition programs.

FAQ

  1. Can we outsource the administration of an employee recognition program?

    Yes, KangoHR provides the dedicated team to administer and operate your recognition programs. The term outsource used to have negative connotations. In the modern workplace, HR leaders likely know what they want to get done and their strategies. The help that is needed is having a trusted resource handle the day to day administration. This includes employee questions, capturing and delivering the praise, and generally streamlining processes and protocols.

    And this is not about being far away from your teams. Consider us an extension of the team and will share feedback and improvements. We believe in continuous improvement and will iterate as necessary.


  2. What does a recognition program administrator actually do?

    We handle a variety of roles. Main ones include:

    Working with you to define strategy, benchmarks, budget, and programs
    We set up the programs on our infrastructure. This includes HRIS connections, reporting rules, key stakeholders, and recipients of reports that cover everything from payroll, budgeting, finance, retention, effectiveness, and general activity.

  3. Can KangoHR run one program without replacing our existing recognition system?

    Yes, that is how we start with most clients. They have a specific need. For example, they need a program to handle employee of the month. Or handle a program that rewards people who submit ideas for improvement, or asking employees to share the impact they have had this quarter. And handle a process to administer the end-to-end process.


4 .Can KangoHR manage Employee of the Month?

Yes, you may call it something else. However many organizations enjoy rewarding employees on a regular basis and have programs that are either handled by nominations, peer encouragement, or by metrics behind the scenes.

A new approach has been to look at data around results and employee metrics. All HR approved and compliant. For example, employees who complete training and put those practices into action is a regular way we help.

  1. Can KangoHR administer service awards?

Yes, service and milestone awards in general are areas we can assist. We started the company in 2009, and have seen service awards change dramatically. We can help you put together a meaningful milestone award program that resonates with your employees.

This means potentially acknowledging every year of service, notifying managers and leaders in advance, asking HR or location managers to approve, and a range of ways to award the employee (monetary and non-monetary)

  1. Who handles employee questions, fulfillment and reporting?

    We do. KangoHR will provide your employees multiple support channels.


  2. Can KangoHR run several recognition programs for us?

    Yes and you can try to be the program winner. We run 22 programs for one organization and are open to adding and refining. Our approach is that we step in when there is a discrete need and then slowly expand groups.
