P&G China has offered a new policy to many employees, allowing them to choose one day to work from home from the five work days per week.
P&G currently has more than 6000 employees in China. The company says employees can choose one day to work from home each week based on their own work conditions. Zhai Yuyan, deputy director of P&G's Human Resource Department, has told local media that this new policy of allowing employees to work at home is another strategy that the company has taken to help employees balance their arrangements between work and life. According to local media reports, P&G's employees seem to be pleased with this new policy which offers them more freedom.
Apart from this work policy, P&G also allows its employees to work for npart-time. The company says its employees can apply for working three days or four days each week according to their needs, for which they will get only 60%-80% of their full salary, but they will enjoy the full amount of other benefits like social insurance and accident insurance.
In addition, P&G reportedly allows its pregnant employees to take maternity leave two months in advance of giving birth to a baby and says they can apply for a one-year maternity leave if necessary.
