Employee Appreciation: Branded Gifts To Give During The Pandemic
Recognizing professionals, especially in the midst of the coronavirus, can lead to more productivity, positive attitudes and better business overall.
For brands, COVID-19 has brought about change: Some have closed, some are working from home, some are slowly getting back to a new normal, and all must do what they can to keep operating, as safely as possible.
Internally, businesses and organizations can show employees some recognition for all their efforts, especially during these trying times, with custom gifts; from PPE and clothing items to products that promote relaxation, any of these would be appreciated right now!
Plus, besides the fact that they can be personalized with names, logos and colors, they are also made from recycled, sustainable and eco-friendly materials, making them good for brands, teams and the earth.
In the workplace, make sure each desk and person is equipped with a face mask and a thermometer. For those who are working from home, mail a care package, so that they, too, can stay healthy and keep a check on their wellness. 
Computers, phone screens, printers, glasses and other surfaces can and should be cleaned with a sanitizer. Having a custom-printed option allows employees, clients and fans to spread the message of a brand, all while stopping the spread of germs!
Now would be a great time to offer up new clothing items for the team, such as comfy hoodies, polished polos, recycled hats and printed socks. These will keep everyone looking and feeling good.
Work spaces should be as serene as possible right now, so also give gifts such as air plants, succulents and jade rollers.
Additionally, gifts that are good for the environment appeal to and please people, so consider options such as a recycled backpack (perfect for carrying phones, keys, office supplies and more) or a recycled mug (which can be enjoyed at home, at work or on the go).
