20 Dec 2023



SelfLube's Commitment to Employees and Community 

As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to reflect on the importance of community, family, and employee appreciation. 

With over 30 years of experience, SelfLube stands as a trusted partner in manufacturing precision components, known for its commitment to excellence and innovative solutions that enhance manufacturing processes. 

A Team of Dedicated Professionals 

At the heart of SelfLube's success is its remarkable team of dedicated professionals who have been a huge part in the company's growth. 

From a modest beginning serving a few local tool shops, SelfLube has evolved into an integral part of the industry. The company's success is owed to the loyalty and expertise of team members who have celebrated work anniversaries stretching over two decades.

Importance of Employee Appreciation

During the holiday season, the spirit of reflection and gratitude is upon us. SelfLube places a significant emphasis on recognizing and appreciating its employees

Acknowledging the hard work and commitment of team members fosters a positive company culture and ensures long lasting partnerships with customers. 

Promoting Company Culture and Community

In the spirit of giving back, we have compiled a list of valuable tips on building company culture and community spirit. Appreciating employees not only boosts morale but also results in higher work motivation. SelfLube encourages businesses to show gratitude to their teams, promoting a sense of community within the workplace. 

Tips for Employee Appreciation 

  • Celebrate Milestones: Whether it's a 5-year, 10-year, 15-year, or 20-year anniversary, make these occasions special. Arrange a group lunch to honor the employee, extend invitations to family members, present a special gift or award, and highlight past accomplishments. Treat these milestones with the significance they deserve.

  • Prioritize Work-Life Balance: Acknowledge that everyone has a life outside of work. Strive to accommodate employees' important commitments, such as appointments and family engagements, by offering schedule flexibility.

  • Promote Continuous Improvement: Recognize that the ability to make a positive contribution is crucial for both job and life satisfaction. Implement a continuous improvement program that challenges every employee to explore better ways of doing things. This not only enhances job satisfaction but also contributes to the company's overall improvement and competitiveness.

  • Host Team Lunches: Take your team out for lunch, whether it's a small group at a restaurant or a larger gathering with catering. Consider themed lunches like Italian or TexMex to add an interesting touch.

  • Throw Celebratory Parties: Elevate workplace morale by throwing parties. Incorporate entertainment and use assigned seating to facilitate a mix of people, encouraging the sharing of new stories and jokes for a vibrant atmosphere.

  • Share the Holiday Spirit: Express gratitude to your employees by distributing modest yet meaningful holiday gifts. Embrace the festive season as an opportunity to show appreciation for their hard work and dedication.
