Man’s best friend beneficial in the workplace? You be the judge.

Some of the most successful companies in the world are becoming pet friendly.  Google, Amazon, and Etsy are a few of the many companies that allow you to bring your furry friend to the workplace.

When it came to group tasks, those who had a dog around them tested higher for trust, team bonding, and intimacy than those who worked without one.

• 11% drop in stress when allowed to bring your pet to work
• 70% spike in stress when having to leave their pet at home

Lower stress = Lower blood pressure, fewer heart problems How is that related to workplace productivity? Healthier employees take less sicks days = more productivity _& lower health insurance premiums = happier employees
