What are the benefits of bringing pets to work?
Studies have indicated that employees who bring pets to work show fewer signs of stress.
At Purina, we’ve noticed many benefits. For example, bringing a dog to work helps us get outside and take more walks, and bringing a cat gives us another excuse to play. Beyond that, employees find that bringing a pet to work helps them maintain a healthy work-life balance. From our perspective, Purina has found it is a nice perk for our staff, which helps with retention.
Studies have indicated that employees who bring pets to work show fewer signs of stress. That could be because pets help us relax and take time to meet new people.
Finally, we’ve noticed benefits for pets as well. They get to socialise with new people and play with other pets while enjoying more daily activity and more time with the owner they love.
