Deloitte offers an annual well-being subsidy of $1000 for employees to spend on items promoting their well-being.
Employees can use this allowance on various things like gym memberships, gaming consoles, Legos, puzzles, kitchen appliances, cooling fans, and spa services.
The addition of Legos and puzzles to the list has been well-received by Deloitte employees.
Some employees are excited to purchase expensive Lego sets, particularly the Ultimate Millennium Falcon Set.
Deloitte staff work longer hours compared to the average US employee, with an average of 55 hours per week.
The well-being subsidy helps employees cope with the demanding work hours.
The subsidy is not accessible to interns and contract staff.
Introduced at least six years ago, the subsidy amount was increased from $500 to $1000.
Legos are known to relieve stress and have a calming effect on individuals, benefiting both adults and children.
The building of Legos is said to enhance motor skills in children.
The news was originally reported on HR Katha.
Employees are looking forward to utilizing the subsidy for their well-being needs.
