“This analysis shows that the days of cookie-cutter rewards programs with employee recognitions being rare are over and it would seem that COVID-19 is the reason,” said Todd Horton, Founder and CEO of KangoGift. “Employee recognition and rewards cratered in March and April along with the rest of the economy. Its sharp rebound is evidence that leaders realize the unprecedented strain on their employees as a result of COVID-19 and are acting appropriately to ensure their teams well being and provide a smooth continuance into 2021.”
The analysis was conducted using data from KangoGift’s proprietary, global database. All information is current as of December 1.
