Hello, Zephaniah !
These are interesting questions ! I assume you are interested in knowing how a company can make their employees feel valued, not "employers" because employers always do feel valued.
It's going to depend on what company you work for. Is it a non-profit agency or a high corporate business where competition is in the forefront ? So it's really difficult if not impossible to generalize this. Once you begin your career you will be able to tell if you're valued or not. I wouldn't focus so much on it, though, because a workplace is just like any place else: the interaction with people of various backgrounds working together. The main focus I always thought in connection with this is to work on self development and have the capacity to interact in a meaningful way with people of all walks of life.
Many companies make their employees feel valued by offering trainings, conferences, coaching presentations and special fun events. I can't speak for the high corporate atmosphere, but the non-profit sector is very supportive and most times very understanding about individual employee concerns. You can't control what others do, but you can give your best as a team player or while you work independently. As long as you have a manager and administration or a CEO who understands and respects you, you're good to go. One employer can make one employee feel special while another employee at the same place can feel disrespected, so it's difficult to say what employers could do as people are too diverse and you're not going to please everyone.
You haven't mentioned your trade so it's also hard to say what steps you should take. As it is for every career, I would advocate for personal development, self-discovery, being around all different people of different personalities and educational levels and ages and experience a wide range of personalities and issues. Also, for any trade, obtain the necessary academic or certification that would qualify you. Sometimes the workplace seems like one big family and other jobs may seem like you're pushing yourself to go to work everyday. This is an important experience to have and nothing but personal development prepares you for it. Having answers to these questions will surely be underplayed once you begin to develop and strengthen your life experience. I always believed that people bring to the job the same things they bring to their personal life. So just be yourself and try not to worry or project about work. It will come naturally to you.
