As employees are looking to provide a great work environment without making it so much fun that work doesn’t get done, many leading companies have had to get creative to provide unique ways of bolstering morale and maintaining a positive work culture. As detailed by The Muse, there are many companies that want you to have fun at work, and go out of their way to emphasize this ethos.
Multinational digital consulting firm, Omnigon, puts on monthly outings including opportunities for their employees to go to sporting events, and weekly happy hours that feature foosball tournaments. Mobile gaming company, Pocket Gems, as you would assume, encourage creativity and game time, with the once-spontaneous table tennis breaks becoming a full ping-pong league. At Nitro, the company encourages a strong work-life balance by giving employees five days off each year (in addition to their existing vacation days) so that they can do some volunteering, which comes with initiatives attached, as well as staging a weekly hangout with some drinks.
There’s no doubt that happy employees are much more productive, with the best way to keep workers happy by providing them with the best work environment possible.
