As an owner of a small business, I can attest that this simple motto is often overlooked. Often times, employee recognition is the last thought on the minds of most employers. With bills, sales, vendors, inventory and overhead, who has time to worry about recognizing employees?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a common pitfall in leading a business. Now more than ever you need to be thanking your employees for their continued service. Even the little things should be pointed out let alone yearly anniversaries.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why Choose Crystal?<\/h2>\n<p>At DIY Awards, we use only the finest crystal for our engraved awards.

It has a striking appearence that attracts attention and says \"You're special\".<\/p>\n<p>You're more likely see an employee or colleague boast a beautiful crystal service award plaques in their office than the traditional wooden plaque or acrylic plaque.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median number of years that wage and salary workers had been with their current employer was 4.2 years in January 2016, down from 4.6 years in January 2014.
