Does the company you work for reward you during the holiday season for your hard work?
A new study from ADP Canada explored how working Canadians would like to be rewarded over the holiday season.
When employees were asked what they would like their employer to offer over the holidays, 54 per cent said they would like a bonus — but only 15 per cent of employed Canadians expected to receive one this year.
The study also found the most common reward was usually a holiday party, followed by a gift or additional time off. Eleven per cent didn’t want any holiday reward at all.

In Atlantic Canada, the ADP Canada study found 23 per cent of employees were likely to get a financial bonus versus 15 per cent nationally. But 63 per cent would prefer to get one over anything else.
Charitable donations and activities ranked at the bottom with only seven per cent of Canadian employers planning to participate in a charitable activity for the holidays.
Only eight per cent of employees were interested in giving to a charity as a company.
