Everybody loves food; regardless of whether you are an employee or employer reading this article, you will probably agree that stepping into the office with daily breakfast catering available is going to put a smile on anyone’s face. After all, breakfast is often dubbed the most important meal of the day.
Hiring breakfast catering - be it for special occasions or as a day-to-day perk-me-up for employees - can make a huge difference in the workplace. Keep reading to find out why.
Noticed that your employees are heading out to get breakfast in the morning during office hours? Or do you find it a chore to wake up earlier just to have more time to grab a bite before work starts?
With breakfast catering, all employees will no longer have to waste precious time walking to the nearest store and back before work can officially start. Catered breakfast available at a stipulated timeframe encourages them to arrive at work punctually, allows them to fill their tummies in the office itself, and syncs their schedules to help them better manage their time.
Consider ordering meal boxes with mini bites that can be easily consumed anywhere in the office.
Although working through hunger and waiting till lunchtime is something many employees experience on a daily basis, it can have long-term effects on their health and performance at work.
In fact, skipping breakfast negatively impacts one’s short-term memory and cognitive performance, affecting productivity in return.
Thus, having breakfast catering in the office does not just fill hungry stomachs but is also a great way to boost employees’ productivity for enhanced efficiency at work!
Employee welfare is extremely important - according to Forbes, 89% of employees working in companies that support well-being initiatives are more likely to recommend their company as a good place to work.
Since food is the way to the heart, ordering breakfast catering for employees is one of the best ways to show that the company cares. It is a form of welfare that can boost morale at work, benefitting both employees and the company simultaneously.
Take your company’s well-being initiatives a step further by catering healthy breakfasts that will help employees load up on essential nutrients for a stronger body.
“Teamwork makes the dream work” but in reality, it is not easy for employees across different departments to bond.
However, providing food in the office is one way to encourage bonding between employees since people from different backgrounds and departments get to interact during breakfast.
Even if your company decides to order individual meal boxes instead of shareable platters, the simple act of heading to the pantry to pick up a box and sitting down at shared tables to eat can promote collaboration and start conversations.
Every company wants to retain talented employees and although many other factors such as an attractive salary, staff benefits and a conducive working environment all play a part, offering free food matters too.
Employee turnover costs money, time and effort. But company-paid breakfasts are going to be worth it in the long run - free food is often seen as a major perk that is hard to give up.
