How to Best Personalize a Retirement Trophy

Today, workers do not stay at jobs as long-term as they used to. Most employees only remain at a job for around 5 years, and older employees remain at their jobs for an average of ten years. 

This seems like a long time today, but it was common in the past to remain at jobs for 20+ years. When workers retire from a job that they have been at for a long time, they deserve to be recognized with something terrific, like a personalized trophy or personalized gift. 

How should you customize a retirement trophy? 

When you are thinking of how you are going to individualize a retirement trophy, keep these 3 things in mind: customization, quality, and uniqueness.

You want to have a trophy that is customized so that the retiree really feels unique. You can write things like personal messages on the award to make it personalized.

A significant occasion like retirement deserves a top-quality award, so make sure to get an excellent quality award, like one made of glass, crystal, etc.

Finally, you want the retiree to feel special, so you should get them a unique award. Give them an award that they will enjoy. 

What should you write on the trophy? 

Everybody knows that there any many customization choices when making a trophy. You can include various colors and logo designs, different shapes, names, and inscriptions.

You should make the colors your business’s colors, and make sure to include your company logo.

When writing stuff on the trophy, make sure to put the person’s name and something about their retirement. This can be anything from the number of years they’ve worked at the business to something like congratulations on your retirement.

You may want to consider writing something meaningful for them, too. 

When should I give the retiree their trophy? 

When someone is retiring, you might think about throwing them a retirement party.

You should most definitely think about throwing a party, if possible, as everybody loves having a party. This will help improve employee morale and provide wonderful memories for everyone in your company. You should present the award to the retiree at the party, and you could even say a short speech. If it is not possible to throw a party, leave the trophy on their desk with a nice card.
