The Hidden ROI of Happiness: Why Breakroom Culture Drives Retention
For years, the breakroom was treated as a checkbox — a coffee pot, a microwave, maybe a snack jar.
But modern HR analytics reveal what culture-focused companies already sense: how people feel at work directly impacts the bottom line.
According to Gallup’s 2024 State of the Global Workplace,
🟩 Employees who feel cared for by their organization are 69% less likely to actively search for a new job.
🟩 Highly engaged teams show 23% higher profitability and 81% lower absenteeism.
And SHRM data estimates that replacing an employee costs up to 200% of their annual salary when you factor in recruiting, onboarding, and lost productivity.
That’s the hidden ROI of happiness — and it starts in simple, human spaces.
When your team has access to clean, well-stocked, and thoughtfully designed break areas, you’re not just feeding hunger; you’re feeding connection and trust.
TraXXable’s smart vending solutions make this easy — turning small moments of convenience into measurable outcomes:
🟩 Higher retention from a workplace that feels modern, generous, and human.
🟩 Reduced downtime with 24/7 access to energy boosts and healthy options.
🟩 Better engagement because people have a natural space to pause, chat, and reset.
Happiness might not appear on your P&L — but it directly influences the line items that do.
Invest in your team’s well-being. The ROI is real.
