Nontraditional employee benefits have expanded well beyond a break room stocked with snacks and cappuccinos. Businesses must be more creative to lure desirable employees to the workplace. While at first glance it may seem as if unique perks only benefit employees, on closer inspection it makes great business sense. Perks build employee morale, loyalty and satisfaction, which translates into less turnover and greater retention.
Want to attract and retain workers? Who doesn't? Consider free meals. Company-paid lunches are a major perk that's hard to pass up, especially if you're a millennial. USA Today reported that providing free food to your employees can result in a 67% job satisfaction rate.
