Marketing Firm Gives Non-Smokers Paid Days Off to Equal Smoke Breaks
The idea actually came from a non-smoking employee who claimed that cigarette breaks add up to more time off for smokers. A Japanese marketing firm has introduced a policy to give non-smokers six extra paid days off -- to compensate for the time smokers spend away from their desks.
Good idea? Tell us what you think.
Piala CEO Takao Asuka tells the Japan Times that four employees have quit smoking since the policy was introduced earlier this year.
