HiFives is an AI-powered employee rewards and recognition platform for enterprises.
The HiFives platform includes the program’s branding, such as the logo, theme colors, e-certificates, and all email and Slack communications.
Managers can nominate their team members for spot recognition and quarterly awards through the platform.
After that, the HR team and the respective business heads review and approve these nomination requests.
Once the awards are approved and released, employees receive personalized e-certificates via email.
Also, the reward points are credited to employee accounts on the platform.
Also, any employee can recognize another employee by selecting an appropriate e-card and personalizing it with a relevant message.
This form of informal recognition is non-monetary and does not require any approvals.
So, the recipient receives the e-card instantly by email, and a copy is sent to their reporting manager.
Co-workers can recognize others for demonstrating the company’s core values using value cards.
These value cards are non-monetary and do not require any approval.
The HR team hosts employee appreciation events on the HiFives platform for International Women’s Day, Teacher’s Day, Youth Skills Day, and World Radio Day.
During these events, employees recognize one another with e-cards tailored to the occasion.
The HR team uses the platform to engage employees during Mother’s Day, Independence Day, and festivals.
Employees post pictures and videos of these activities using the HiFives Stories.
Other employees across the company like and comment on these stories.
The best stories are often rewarded on the platform itself.
Employees earn reward points from different awards they receive through the platform.
Additionally, the platform’s Leaderboard shows the top winners by reward points across teams and locations.
All awards, peer recognition, and employee milestones are automatically posted on the HiFives Wall of Fame, where other employees can view and like them to congratulate the winners.
Employees can also share the rewards and recognition they have received directly on their Facebook timelines.
Also, employees can redeem their reward points for e-gift cards from leading brands.
Employees can choose from a catalog of e-gift cards from several hundred reputable brands.
In a few hours, they will receive these e-gift cards via email.
