Why Peopleoo Is Different: Beyond Perks to Real Recognition in Care
There’s no shortage of employee reward and recognition platforms out there — Perkbox, ThanksBen, Reward Gateway, WorkL — all promising better engagement, happier teams, and a more motivated workforce. And to be fair, they work well in many sectors.
But health and social care isn’t just any sector. And caring people aren’t just any workforce.
Peopleoo was built to do something different — and we think, something better — for this incredible community.
Not Just Another “Perks” App
Platforms like Perkbox or ThanksBen are great if you want a coffee voucher or gym discount. But how do you recognise the nursery assistant who spent her break helping a new mum feel safe enough to leave her baby? Or the care worker who got a young adult to a critical hospital appointment with patience, humour and a playlist?
On Peopleoo, recognition is rooted in real human connection — not points, not prizes.
Built for Care, Not Desks
Most recognition tools are designed for corporate culture. That’s fine — but it doesn’t reflect the reality of the care sector. Peopleoo is made for the people working long shifts, navigating emotional labour, and showing up daily for others. Whether you’re frontline, in finance, HR, facilities, or working unpaid at home — you’re part of the caring community.
Recognition That Helps People Stay
Let’s face it — burnout is real. Perks are nice, but they don’t keep people in care roles. Being valued does. Peopleoo helps employers and peers give Special Mentions — meaningful moments that remind people why they do what they do, and why it matters.
That’s not just good for morale — it’s good for retention.
Recognition With Purpose
On Peopleoo, recognition isn’t a vanity metric. It’s part of your story. Special Mentions help build your reputation, your CV, and your sense of self-worth. It’s not about “likes” — it’s about legacy.
So if you’re looking for something more than just perks, something with heart — join Peopleoo.
For every care worker. Every unpaid carer. Every cleaner, cook, support worker, therapist and admin. We see you. And we think you deserve more than a discount code.
