If you consider Employment Engagement just another fancy term for Human Resources (or People and Culture), then your perspective needs slight adjustment.

While there is a certain intersection between HR (or People and Culture) and Employment Engagement, it is also true that Employment Engagement goes beyond HR and People/Culture.

And in this blog, we are going to be covering how we do Employee Engagement at Qniverse.

Culture

The most important aspect for any employee is the culture. At Qniverse, we take culture seriously. So, we go above and beyond to ensure that everyone at the company is heard, engaged, and having fun.

To ensure this, we have one-of-a-kind culture that values:

• Diversity
• Creativity
• Leadership
  
• Inclusivity

Initiatives

Creating a good work culture is just one part of the equation, we also need to ensure there are initiatives in place to ensure individual growth for everyone.

Such initiatives not only help team members level-up in their professional endeavors, but they also ensure that everyone feels appreciated.

Here are some of the initiatives we implement to keep our employees motivated:

• Yearly Performance Reviews and Appraisals.
• 20% of Workday dedicated to learning and professional growth.
• Free Udemy account with virtually unlimited courses.
• Mentorship and Guidance from seniors.
• A work culture that aims at grooming talent for the future.

Events and Activities

Another key aspect of employee engagement includes events and activities. Thankfully, we don’t shy away from organizing events and doing different activities at Qniverse.

Here are some of the things we do at the organization:

• Our monthly QniQuest sessions let our team share their valuable experiences and knowledge to the next breed of QA engineers.
• In our yearly Qniverse Gala, we reflect on the past year, discuss our future, and enjoy an evening full of food, laugh, and performances.
• We conduct games and activities every month that range from celebrating festivals, enjoying lunches and dinners, to just having some fun at the office.

In addition, we also provide our employees with rewards and gifts for different activities and events all throughout the year.

What have we achieved with Employee Engagement?

At Qniverse, employee engagement activities have been fruitful for both the employees and the organization.

Here’s what we have achieved through our Employee Engagement activities:

• We’ve consistently hit a high employee retention rate.
• Our project completion time has improved considerably.
• We’ve increased the participation rate of our employees in activities.
• Our employees enjoy work-life balance and have higher job satisfaction.
• We have also created an environment of open communication and better collaborations.
