Why does a Thai boss urge employees to bring pets to work?

Dogs are man’s best friends, but we often have to leave our dogs at home because we are busy at work. When they finally wait for us to come back, it is often already very late or because they are too tired. , I can’t take it out to play.

Recently, an advertising company in Bangkok, Thailand, thought of a good way to allow employees to bring their dogs to the office. This not only solves the dog's loneliness at home, but also improves the atmosphere of the office. It's getting better.

If you walk into this advertising company for the first time, you may be surprised by the sight in front of you: there will be some cute dogs next to the employees, or sitting on their laps and acting coquettishly, or chatting with other employees. The dogs were playing and playing together... The employees moved the mouse with one hand and stroked the dogs' heads with the other hand from time to time. Anankanat is the manager of this advertising company. She highly encourages employees to bring their pets Come to work, where dogs can run around freely and make friends... If employees have time, they can play with dogs as much as they like.

It seems a bit strange, but Anankanat has her own opinion~ She wants to use this method so that employees don’t have to worry about the condition of dogs at home while working, and also alleviate the stress caused by everyone’s work pressure.

An employee of the company said, "Whenever we return to the company after a meeting with clients, we are actually very tired. But after playing with our dogs for a while and petting their heads, Just hug them or just watch them running around quietly, which makes them relax a lot."

Anankanat said, "I hope it is not cold here for our employees. A cold office, but a warm home~ Whenever they come to work, it feels like bringing their pets to meet friends, playing with them, and the employees are very happy.”

And. Surprisingly, some people in this company didn’t like dogs very much before, but after spending time with them and seeing how cute the dogs are, they gradually started to like them...even many people Later, they all had their own dogs, and they willingly became shit shovelers. Now, there are about 20 dogs playing happily in this company every day, and they bring everyone a lot of happiness. In fact, this company in Thailand is not the first to allow pets to come to the office. There is a company in Japan that also tried it 2 years ago, and the results were pretty good.

This company is an Internet marketing company in Tokyo, Japan. Most of the employees’ pets are cats. In addition to the 9 cats adopted by the company, dozens of cats live happily here. Meow Their arrival makes employees relax, and because there are many topics to talk about, the employees' relationships become closer.

This company also stipulates that if an employee adopts a cat, he or she will be given a monthly subsidy of 5,000 yen (approximately 300 yuan). Even when hiring new employees, "loving animals" is an important requirement. In recent years, there have been more and more such companies. Some, like the two companies above, allow pets to be brought in every day, while some are still in the experimental stage.

For example, recently, some high-tech companies in California also allow employees to bring dogs to the company on specific dates. This not only shows that the company is becoming more "humane", but also achieves A win-win situation for personal interests and company interests. Scholars from the University of Minnesota found through research that “bringing pets to work can indeed help employees relax, create a good working environment, and improve employees’ work efficiency~”
