Are you looking for quality employees to staff your supply chain department? You may have better luck if you can offer summer hours, according to a survey conducted by LifeWork Search, a search and recruitment organization that specializes in supply chain planning and procurement.
A summary of the survey findings appear in Material Handling & Logistics' article, Supply Chain in the Summertime. The article reports that 46% of survey respondents cited summer hours as the most important non-monetary benefit for employees, followed by an extra day off, a company outing, and a casual dress code.
“We’re starting to see a lot of companies put wellness and associated programs in place to help employees balance the challenges of work and life,” says Jason Breault, managing director of LifeWork Search. “More companies are coming to the realization that healthy-minded employees are more productive employees. We are constantly being asked by hiring managers what they should put in place to make their environment friendlier.”
Sounds great to me! Please read the full article here.
