Human resource technology innovator STORM (formerly STORM Flex Systems, Inc.), developer of STORM Flexible Benefits and incentives platform STORM KUDOS, launched its latest product, Squares.
Squares is a corporate communications tool built to engage today’s mobile workforce. This app enables employers to communicate quickly, effectively, and directly with their employees through their smartphones. Squares is designed to be a much better bridge between employer and employee, leading to greater engagement and productivity.
A subsidiary of leading Filipino software and IT solutions developer Xurpas, STORM is best known for its unique Flexible Benefits platform. This allows employees to convert benefits such as sick leaves, vacation leaves, and food allowances into monetary points called FlexPoints. Employees may then use their points to purchase gadgets, clothes, travel and dining packages, and other benefits in kind from STORM’s exclusive online marketplace.
STORM’s second product, KUDOS, is a total motivation platform that combines external rewards and intrinsic motivation. Managers award top-performing employees with digital points which they can use to purchase their rewards of choice on the STORM online marketplace. KUDOS’ wishlist feature enables employees to identify the rewards they want to receive and work harder to achieve them. Employees can also exchange affirmation for good work done, which are displayed on their profile pages for an increased sense of achievement.
Squares was launched on October 7, at the Ascott, BGC, Taguig City.
