Millions of Americans believe pets on the job lower absenteeism and encourage workers to get along, according to the survey by the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association. Pet-friendly environments can pay off in a competitive job market, said Phil Carpenter, vice president of marketing at Simply Hired, an online jobs database that has added an option for job-seekers to select a dog-friendly company. More than 400 companies—among them Google Inc.—have listed themselves as dog-friendly, he said. (REUTERS) References: news.yahooFiled In: |
