Retirement Award, Clock, Plaque and Gift Ideas and Wording

When a Long Time Employee Retires, It Is Commmon to Recognize the Years of Hard Work and Dedication that the Person Gave to your Organization.

A retirement gift conveys respect, appreciation, esteem and the value that an individual had within the company. Generally, a retirement gift is given to individuals who have worked for an organization for at least 5 years. We regularly see organizations giving retirement gifts for employees who have been with them for over 30 years, quite a feat considering the average time a person spends at a company is approximately 3 years.

Often, the Retirement Award or Retirement Gift will be presented at an employee meeting, special luncheon, or retirement party. Many times, the company will also have a commemorative plaque created, representing individual work accomplishments, for display in a Hall of Fame at corporate offices, showing customers, vendors, and new employees how much they value long term employees.

There are a wide variety of options that are appropriate as Retirement Gifts. The personality of the individual, the type of position, the number of years worked, and the type of company will all play into choosing a memorable gift for the recipient. Here are some ideas and options for wording your Retirement Gift, Plaque or Award.
