Afternoon EZ, I have questions about NON-EZ stuff.
I am trying to draft and submit a "gamification" in the workplace system. Essentially this system would reward employees for doing their job, going above and beyond, and then even some chance.
First, every employee will be allowed to accumulate points for keeping their station clean. This includes cleaning up any food spilled, any stacks of paper, keeping dust covers on their machines when they head home, and/or using the ticket system instead of showing up at the door "My
<device> doesn't work". This will amount to a trivial amount of points weekly (and will be capped to prevent excess) but will stand as a fair share over time.
Second, every employee may find ways to improve his/her surrounds. This would enable a vigilant employee to obtain a fair share of extra points. This might include forwarding scam emails to us (IT Dept) so we may block the senders, reporting suspicious vehicles at start/end of day, or reporting any exploitative glitches/workarounds (such as a firewall workaround or torrent program that can be run while still under the software lockdown policy).
Third, (my favorite) employees can make weekly nominations. Each employee will be given a set amount of "nomination" points to allow him/her to nominate an employee who has done something extremely noteworthy can be awarded a small amount of extra points from others. This amount will not be capped, but it would require quite a bit of manipulation, begging, or nude-y pics to get a significant amount.
Basically, I have those generic examples and a few others:
- Password Security (changing it every 90, not sharing, etc)
- VPN ladies/gents logging in once a week at a certain time to get patched up
- Possibly award minor points for commenting on weekly How-To articles or reading up on company news and commenting on it.
