Reducing Stress In The Workplace
July 13, 2007
I've blogged on the topic of stress before. I do believe that employers should, in general, do more to reduce the stress levels of employees. I found an example, though, of a company that takes employee happiness too far. This particular company is a corporate atmosphere which does lend itself to more daily stress. The company's answer? Massages and game tables... I kid you not!
When corporations start policy trends such as regular massages for employees, are we not destined to see some trickle-down into the retail sector? I mean, are we going to see employees wanting massage breaks? I hope that this is an extreme example. I would like to re-state that I do believe stress should be minimized, but come on! Massages at work on the company tab and on company time??? I hope you'll find this report as amusing as I did. The reporter, Cash Peters (of whom I am obviously a fan), finds the concept laughable, too. Enjoy!
