Employee motivation: turn your employees into ambassadors
December 2, 2025
In a context of intense competition for talent in Luxembourg, retaining employees is no longer enough: you have to make them want to get involved. Employee motivation therefore becomes a strategic lever for strengthening performance, corporate culture, and attractiveness.
At Pluxee, we believe that motivated and recognized employees naturally become authentic ambassadors because they enjoy a positive employee experience on a daily basis, embodied by concrete actions such as employee benefits and CSR initiatives.
1. Motivation: a collective driver, not just an individual one
According to Gallup (2023), engaged employees are 21% more productive and 23% more profitable.
In Luxembourg, the STATEC survey “Work and Social Cohesion” (2024) confirms that recognition and employee benefits are among the main drivers of engagement.
💡 A motivated employee speaks positively about their company, attracts candidates, and fosters a culture of trust: a virtuous circle that can be created and maintained.
2. Giving meaning: recognition at the heart of commitment
Employees no longer commit themselves solely for a salary, but for a project, values, and consistency.
Highlighting concrete actions in the areas of CSR, inclusion, and sustainability strengthens pride in belonging.
At Pluxee, this conviction guides our initiatives:
- Pluxee Lunch vouchers and Pluxee Gift vouchers support local businesses;
- digital solutions contribute to more sustainable use.
- and solidarity-based partnerships promote a more responsible economy.
👉 By linking recognition, impact, and meaning, the company creates a culture that motivates in the long term.
3. Concrete recognition: employee benefits as a lever for engagement
Meal vouchers: a universal benefit
- Since January 2024, the maximum value of meal vouchers has been set at €15 per day, of which €2.80 is paid by the employee.
- They represent up to €2,635 net per year in additional purchasing power: concrete support for everyday life (Guide 2025)
A digital and human experience
With the Pluxee Lunch card, employees enjoy a simple benefit that is accepted in over 2,500 shops and restaurants.
But the experience goes further:
- The Pluxee app, a new version of which has been available since September 2025 (find out more), offers a more intuitive interface, real-time tracking, and geolocation of partners.
- A dedicated consumer service team supports each user.
- Exclusive events and partner offers strengthen the sense of belonging.
💡 By combining digital technology, support, and tangible benefits, Pluxee transforms a material benefit into a motivating and unifying experience.
4. Recognizing performance: the impact of gift cards
Beyond everyday life, recognizing individual or collective achievements boosts motivation.
The Pluxee Gift voucher is a great way to thank an employee, celebrate a project, or mark an event.
Flexible and perceived as a personal gesture, it becomes a powerful symbol of recognition, a factor in satisfaction and loyalty to the company.
5. Measure and maintain the momentum of internal ambassadors
Creating internal ambassadors is a long-term endeavor. Key indicators:
- eNPS (Employee Net Promoter Score) : measures the likelihood of recommending the company.
- Participation to internal programs (CSR, well-being, formation).
- Digital engagement : number of shares or positive mentions on LinkedIn. Monitoring these signals allows you to adjust your initiatives and sustain a culture of engagement.
In summary...
Turning your employees into ambassadors starts with cultivating their motivation: through recognition, consistency, and meaningful benefits.
With its digital and responsible solutions, Pluxee helps build this lasting bond between employees and employers; a bond based on trust, appreciation, and pride in belonging.
