A Night in the Slammer, Please!
By // November 15th, 2012Who would want a night in the slammer? Apparently 60% of U.S. workers would if the alternative was to lose their employee benefits. Ask.com uncovered this little fun fact in an effort to gauge what strikes a job candidate’s fancy when it comes to deciding on a new job. While some of the responses to the 2012 State of the Workplace: Benefits and Perks study were expected, you’d be surprised at some of the other results – check it out!
It’s also clear from the survey that Americans are protective of personal time and actively seek employers invested in their health and well-being. In fact, unlimited PTO is gaining traction with companies such as Netflix, Zynga and of course, Ask.com. But how do Americans feel?
- 69% said they would be swayed to take a new job if the company offered unlimited time off
- Unlimited PTO matters more to single people (42%) than those who are married (30%) or divorced (27%)
Check out Ask.com’s infographic on the benefits of adopting an unlimited paid time off policy, a benefit Askers enjoy themselves.
