Individual identity recognition, importance

Ego needs include the requirements for self-identity, self-worth, status, and recognition. When social needs are reasonably satisfied, individuals are able to explore the dimensions of who they are and consider how they wish to sell/market themselves. Some examples of ego (esteem) needs are self-respect, esteem of others, self-confidence, mastery, competence, independence, freedom, reputation, prestige, status, fame, glory, dominance, attention, importance, dignity, and appreciation. These individuals will want to be involved in and be a part of the ongoing safety and health effort set by the company.
