If you've ever wished for a workplace that allows you to bring your pets to work, we know just the company you should apply to. In fact, Scotland-based brewery BrewDog goes a step further - it allows its employees 'Puppy Parental Leave.' This means that if you have just brought a new dog home, you're entitled to a week's paid leave. "We know only too well that having a new arrival - whether a mewling pup or unsettled rescue dog - can be stressful for human and hound both. So we are becoming the first in our industry to give our staff a working week's leave on us to help settle a new furry family member into their home," says the endearing announcement on their website.
Puppy Parental Leave is available for all BrewDog employees across the globe, including the ones in their Ohio office. This makes it the first such instance of pet parental leave that is available in the US.
This move by BrewDog has given rise to many paw-sitive comments on social media. "WONDERFUL!!! Thank you for being so compassionate and loving dogs! (especially rescues!!!) Kudos to you good people!" said one commentator on Facebook, while another page called Spanish Stray Dogs UK posted, "Congratulations on this pawsome HR policy!!! We always ask our adopters to take time off when their dog arrives, and it would be great if their employers supported them all."
Twitter, too, came out in full support of this new policy. And yes, if you are looking for a job change to avail this awesome perk, you can apply for jobs at BrewDog here.
