For companies seeking innovative ways to enhance employee productivity, a Thai marketing firm may provide some inspiration. The Whiteline Group has introduced a unique initiative, allowing its employees to take ‘Tinder leaves’ for dating during office hours, with the company covering the expenses. This initiative aims to boost the overall well-being of staff.
The ‘Tinder leaves’ program, which runs for six months, is available from July through the end of the year. Managers at Whiteline Group referenced research indicating that being in love can increase happiness, which in turn enhances job satisfaction. They believe that when employees feel content personally, it positively impacts their work performance.
This innovative approach is seen as a win-win for both the employees and the company. It not only encourages staff to invest fully in their work but also demonstrates the company’s care for their well-being. Improved job satisfaction can lead to lower attrition rates.
Nanki, a working professional, commented, “I stay in South Delhi and my boyfriend is in Noida. With both of us being working professionals, we often struggle to meet. Sometimes, we have to take off on the same day to spend quality time together. This Thai marketing company’s idea is fantastic. If I were offered ‘Tinder leaves,’ it would motivate me to work harder and give my best. It’s great to see companies come up with new ideas that benefit both employees and the organization.”
