11/22/02 - Thanksgiving Trend
|
| |
With Thanksgiving around the corner, we thought you might be interested in what other companies are reporting that they are offering their employees as perks:
- 69% of employers are offering both Thanksgiving Day and the following Friday off as paid holidays.
- 98% of employers are offering at least Thursday the 28th as a paid holiday.
- Nearly half of all surveyed employers plan on having at least a few workers on staff.
- Health care workers are least likely to get two days of holiday pay with manufacturing employees most likely to receive two days.
- Those who have to work will find themselves well compensated for working the holiday. Many organizations will pay a holiday premium or will offer compensatory time off on another day.
- Finally, only 15% of organizations plan on giving Thanksgiving gifts this holiday. Six percent will give away gift certificates for food and five percent will give away turkeys.
