Take Your Pet To Work Day June 25th 2010

Most people aren’t as lucky as we are at Embrace to be able to bring their cats and dogs to work every day, but sometimes you can get your work to make an exception once a year on “Take Your Dog To Work Day” coming up on Friday.

You have to arrange it with your HR department but perhaps your boss would think it worth it if you quoted these APPA survey statistics to support the idea:

  • 73% said pets created a more productive work environment;
  • 27% enjoyed a decrease in absenteeism;
  • 73% said interpersonal skills …improved;
  • 58% said employees stayed late with pets (no need to go home to let the dog out!);
  • 100% said they would continue to allow pets in the office

Sounds like a winning idea to me :)

So mark your calendar for Friday June 25th. If you do bring your dog to work that day, improve your interpersonal skills by posting the pictures on the Embrace Facebook page for all to see and help us all become more productive!
