By Kraig Kleeman
Hey folks, let’s chat about something super interesting in the world of work perks. It’s not all about those standard health and retirement plans anymore. Companies are stepping up their game with some unique fringe benefits. And who better to spill the beans on this than Gio Araullo, the mastermind behind finance and benefits at The New Workforce? Let’s dive in.
Commuter Benefits: Not Just a Ride, It’s a Lifestyle
When I caught up with Gio, we first dived into our commuter benefits. And let me tell you, it’s not just about saving a few bucks on a bus pass. We’ve got this whole eco-friendly angle going on. “Our bike-to-work scheme is a hit!” Gio exclaimed, eyes lighting up. “It’s cool seeing our team choose bikes over cars. We’re doing their bit for the environment, and we’re getting fitter too!” I could sense the pride in his voice, thinking about how this little change was making a big difference.
Learning Beyond the Job Description
Then there’s the tuition assistance program. But it’s not what you think. The New Workforce isn’t just about supporting job-related courses. We’re all about personal growth. “We had someone take a French cooking class and another into astronomy. It’s about exploring passions,” Gio shared with a chuckle. I couldn’t help but admire their approach. Investing in employees’ interests keeps the work environment vibrant and diverse.
Pets Are Part of the Package
And guess what? Our company even offers pet insurance. “You wouldn’t believe how people’s faces light up when we mention this during orientation,” Gio said, laughing. “It’s like we’re telling them their pet is officially part of the team.” I found this particularly heartwarming, thinking about how much my dog, Buster, means to me.
The Real Deal on ROI
Regarding the return on investment for these perks, Gio was candid. “It’s hard to quantify happiness, right? But the energy here, the way people stick around, that tells its own story.” I couldn’t agree more. In a world where numbers often take the front seat, it’s refreshing to see a company valuing the intangible benefits.
Closing Thoughts
So there you have it, from Gio Araullo at The New Workforce. In a nutshell, it’s all about getting creative with employee perks and tuning in to what makes the team tick. It’s a lesson for all companies: if you want to attract and retain the best talent, it’s time to think outside the box. And add a bit of fun to the mix!
