Concierges for your employees?
What are some of the benefits that your company offers employees? Consider this; a number are now including concierge and personal assistant services as perks. According to this article in Sun Sentinel:
About 5 percent of the nation’s companies, according to one survey, have hired personal assistance firms to handle at least some services for their workers — whether that means arranging for a car wash or searching for airfare deals, for example. The employer pays the concierge’s fee, while staffers pay the cost of the wash or tickets.
In terms of the work/life balance, I imagine that this benefit not only gives employees more free time to spend with their families, but I also assume it reduces the time out of the office running errands and such.
