With remote working becoming the new norm, many companies are seeking out new ways to incentivize and reward employees.
For example, in an effort to elevate employees’ work-from-home experience, cruise line Virgin Voyages is inviting workers to an exclusive “work from helm” voyage. The month-long trips will take employees to places like Cannes, Rome, Ibiza, Palma de Mallorca, and Corsica.
Offering getaways to employees, whether for work or relaxation, can be a beneficial incentive for both employees and employers. However, when making such offerings, employers should seek proper legal advice and be mindful of their obligations under appropriate jurisdiction, said Paulette Haynes, founder and managing officer of Haynes Law Firm.
