1. Movie Ditch Day

Or bring the viewing out of the office and take the whole team to the newest Star Wars.  Or Marvel movie.  Or awards show weepie if your workplace is classy like that.  It’s a day of lost work you won’t get back.  But it’s a day of bonding you won’t want to trade.

2. Sponsored Desk Decorations

Budgeting money for desk decorations is another employee perk that brings art into the office.  And actually keeps it there.  Mostly because buying it yourself is a better quality guarantee than making it.

3. Party Planning Committee 

To put the social power (and responsibilities) behind any of the above in employees’ own hands, a Party Planning Committee can be a vital employee perk.  Giving the office control over its own recreation tends to create the kind of recreation the whole office enjoys.  Funny how that works.

4. Seating Exchange

A seating exchange is the sort of employee perk that presents itself as a surface inconvenience, but tends to pay off in spades far more often than not.  Swapping around work areas, even one day a month, mixes up energies and mixes up office relationships, making the whole team slowly feel more familiar with each other.

5. Food Truck Lunches

Food truck lunches are another great way to support the community your office calls home, but it’s a way that instantly pays back.  Take a poll and book the truck of your coworkers’ choice – even weekly, if you feel like going nuts.  Of all possible employee perks, it’s clearly the tastiest.  Click here to get started through Roaming Hunger.

6. Mini-Basketball Hoop

Or bring the gym to work.  It might look like child’s play, but a mini basketball hoop can do wonders for releasing angst that can’t wait until 5pm. Give your writers five minutes of mindlessness to regain their grammar, and your execs five minutes of aggression to regain their sense of control.  

7. Employee Concierge

Help your coworkers make the most of those hours, wherever they fall in the day, with an employee concierge.  Think of it like a personal assistant spread out across the whole office.  Consider outside errands taken care of, and distractions swatted, giving the whole team freedom to focus.  Or if that’s too extreme, give everyone Task Rabbit credits to hire their own temporary assistants as needed.

8. Communal Video Games

If real life aggression’s a little too intense for the office, a shared video game system’s an employee perk offering most of the same benefits, with far less blocking.  Of course, sometimes Mario Kart can cause more arguments than a ball to the face.  So just be ready.

9. Employee-Selected Speaker Series

For interests that go deeper than the books themselves, bring employee-selected speakers to the office to give talks and seminars.  It’s an employee perk that takes personal knowledge and makes it communal.  And making it communal makes it stick around.

10. Dogs Welcome

Nothing accompanies Dalmatian onesies like a Dalmatian by the desk. Bringing dogs into the office provides instant stress relief, instant entertainment, and instant heart that’ll break everyone’s guard down. Assuming they’re not allergic.

11. Free Office Emergen-C

Of course, keeping the kitchen stocked with Emergen-C goes a long way towards helping with all that too.

12. Free Music Streaming

From Spotify to Apple Music to Tidal (okay maybe not Tidal), shared streaming services are a great way to help your coworkers focus and escape, all at the same time.  What’s more, encouraging shared playlists will help everyone in the office get to know each other’s tastes.  And influence each other’s tastes too.

13. Virtual Reality

For more of a solo employee perk, a virtual reality headset like the Oculus Rift can offer a welcome break from the office without ever really leaving it.  It might not do much for team-building, but it’ll do great things for building imagination, employee by employee.

14. Fantasy Sports League

Sponsoring an in-office fantasy league, on the flip side, IS just the kind of employee perk that inspires team building (by building teams, naturally).

15. Office Flatscreen

It goes without saying you can’t have an office fantasy league without a way to keep tabs. Communally. So you can hear all your coworkers’ sighs, moans and cries of agony as you (hopefully) slide up the rankings.

16. Tickets to Games

Or keep tabs in person. With a whole lot more yelling. And beer (of the non office draft system-variety, of course. Save that).

17. Sports League

Or maybe your fantasy game isn’t so hot. That’s okay. For an employee perk that’ll let you show off a more dynamic skill set, sign the company up for a soccer/flag football/heck even a dodgeball league.  It’ll help everyone who signs up bond.  Eventually.  After they’re done trying to pummel each other.

18. Yoga

For an office activity that embraces getting physical but leaves bravado by the way-side (in fact, it tends to actively decrease aggression), signing the office up for yoga – or better yet, offering it in-house, is an employee perk that quickly pays for itself in dividends.  Just make sure you’ve all got somewhere to shower after.

19. In-Office Massages

Or bring the tranquility to work, without the part that requires showering.  Drop-in massage services are everywhere these days, and easy to book as an employee perk that won’t just wipe the day’s stresses away, but should go a long ways toward preventing new ones.

20. Life/Career Coaching

Bringing in a life coach/career coach can massage out all the non-physical things weighing employees down, and leave them just as smoothed out once they’re done.  It’ll also make them more focused.  It’s an employee perk that’ll add a little purpose to your coworkers’ day; in fact the kind of little purpose that becomes very large once it all adds up.

21. Mental Health Allowance

Now if all the previous employee perks are appealing, but the prospect of doing them at work isn’t, a simple allowance for mental health gives employees the means to take care of everything above in private.  Whether it’s therapy sessions, or simply a spa day, wellness allowances help employees get well on their own time, and stay that way on work time.

22. Free Coffee

Same here. Except maybe more so.

23. Stocked Kitchen

If you’re looking to go full Google though, prep the kitchen to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.  It won’t just save employees money, it’ll give them an excuse to converge and eat together.  And if they wind up liking each other, you can label that just another employee perk.

24. TV Viewing Parties

25. Concert Tickets

Conversely, grabbing regular seats for big concerts is a great employee perk for the team more into listening than looking.

26. Free Dropbox Premium

What’s more, signing everyone up for a free Dropbox Premium account will ensure everyone can share the rare album that isn’t currently being streamed with each other.  Along with documents and power points, if they’re into that.

27. Shared E-Readers

For an employee perk that shares even more knowledge, supply your office with a set of Kindles or Fire readers.  The more you enrich yourself, the more riches you have to share with your co-workers.  Even if those riches resemble Young Adult angst.

28. Experience Tickets

If it’s more of an active workplace, take everyone instead to an experience, like the recent Happy Place or Candytopia in LA.  Jump in giant ball pits, get lost in halls of mirrors, and naturally – get your picture taken every step of the way.  After all, it’s the office that Instagrams together that stays together.

29. Office Book Club

And where else would you (responsibly) share your Young Adult angst?

30. Mentorship Program

Another way to do exactly that is running an office mentorship program, pairing employees up with each other to pass on what their best skills and talents.  Whether it directly pertains to daily office life, or encompasses an outside skill set altogether, two heads are always better than one.

31. Group Art

Whether it’s outside the office, or in the middle of the lobby, bringing a team together from different departments is a whole lot easier when the focus is on creating art.  Be it painting, sculpting, or even just basic scrapbooking, group art projects don’t just bring coworkers together, they bring the best out of them.  Especially when alcohol’s involved.

32. Wardrobe Allowance

Self-expression you wear tends to be even more popular than the type you put on your desk.  Like way more popular.  For the office with a dress code, however casual, an allowance for wardrobe is always appreciated, helping your coworkers look their best so they can also feel their best.

33. No Dress Code

Barring a wardrobe allowance, instituting a no dress code policy’s the best kind of sartorial employee perk.  Let your guard down and let your coworkers’ freak flags fly – from cargo shorts to Dalmatian onesies.  You were warned.

34. Free Gym Membership

For a more straightforward employee perk to whole body wellness, a gym membership does a whole lot of good for the body.  It’ll keep your coworkers’ cores as fit as their minds, and probably do a lot for collective confidence too.

35. Meditation

No matter the form it takes, meditation’s become a vital component to 21st century office life, combating the daily stresses of multiple open tabs in multiple open windows on multiple screens for multiple hours of the day.  It’s a shot in the arm for morale and mental health that pays for itself quickly – where mindfulness goes, productivity tends to follow.  And follow so quickly it’ll feel more like it’s happening all at once.  Enlightenment messes with time that way.

36. Flexible Hours

While we’re on the subject of flexibility, flexible hours tend to solve a lot of problems in a big office, letting employees with different jobs do them in the slice of time that makes the most sense to them.  And the best part is, it’s impossible to be late.
