As a result of demographic changes, unemployment is steadily declining, and as a result, potential employers are having to reach for newer and newer methods to attract qualified workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aforementioned <strong>employer branding is all the activities aimed at building the image of an attractive, desirable place to work<\/strong>.

Experts often emphasize that much more important factors influencing satisfaction with the workplace are stability of employment, the opportunity to develop and improve skills, the way management is carried out, and a positive atmosphere in the office.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Employers are increasingly aware of these facts, and as a result, they are taking care to provide non-material benefits for the people they employ, such as organizing team-building meetings and trips, providing sports passes, private health insurance, courses and training, making kindergartens available for employees, and giving them small gifts such as gadgets with the company logo or so-called merch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"a-happy-employee-is-a-productive-employee\"><\/span>A happy employee is a productive employee<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A study at the University of Warwick found that a happy employee is as much as 12% more productive.

In addition, colloquially speaking, we simply &#8220;want it&#8221; more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, we definitely try harder if our work is more than just a source of income for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Each of us has a natural need within us to belong.  <\/strong>If we have a positive emotional relationship with our place of employment and identify with its values, we are unlikely to move to a competitor.
