A competitive benefits package, like what they would be offered as a full-time associate, is one way to build loyalty within this group of workers with the top three ranked benefits, other than pay, being:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Paid Time Off (PTO)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paid Holidays<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Participation in the company 401(k) with company match<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flexible Schedules and Pay Frequency &nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seventy-five percent of hourly workers ranked day shift work as their top preference, followed by nights, overnights and weekends. As part of flexible scheduling, workers are attracted to jobs that allow for the opportunity to use the first two or the last two hours of a shift to tend to personal needs, such as attending a doctor\u2019s appointment, without violating company attendance policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to flexible working hours, hourly workers prefer jobs that pay on a weekly basis. This can be a competitive advantage to attracting talent over bi-weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly pay options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tom\u2019s Take<\/strong> <em>\u2013 \u201cThe documented insights and year-over-year variances provided by Employbridge and summarized above are a valuable source of information for companies that offer temporary or flexible working opportunities.
