These Employee Perks Will Make You Mostly Jealous
Employees spent an average of 88 days in furnished corporate housing or short term rentals in 2012. It is safe to say that quality temporary housing and other office perks will go a long way to help you retain employees (and may even do a great deal to improve employee performance and job satisfaction!). What are some of the craziest and most enviable employee perks from all over the world?
Let The Beer And Wine Flow Freely
Several companies make allowances for drinking at least some alcohol during or after work. One company, for example, proudly boasts beer cart Fridays. Others even have a corporate pub — or a corporate wine bar — in their office building.
Bring Your Dog To Work
A growing number of employers are letting workers bring their beloved pet along when they clock in. Science Daily reports that there may be scientific evidence that having an animal companion in the workplace actually benefits workers, too — by lowering stress and increasing job satisfaction. If you’ve ever had to say goodbye to a pair of sad puppy eyes in the mornings before work, you’ll understand why.
Taking Premier Corporate Housing To The Next Level
Premier corporate housing comes with its fair share of perks. Most units promise amenities and convenience of hotels, while also serving as a comfortable and homey living space. Corporate housing apartments even allow pets, in most cases. Once again, some employers will take this to an extreme. Some businesses, for example, offer employees staying in short term rentals — or even all of their employees! — free concierges to help with errands, like washing their car and returning library books.
Some businesses take employee retention and job satisfaction to entirely new levels, offering employees the occasional beer and the perks of bringing their dog or cat to work.
