This bonus also extends to any new hires
DLGL Technologies is offering vaccinated employees a bonus of up to $2,500 – if they provide medical proof. The HCM software company announced that the pay will come in two parts - $1,250 for each shot.
"We want to do our share in the pursuit of a secure society for all, the easing of the stress on the health system,” added DLGL president Jacques Guénette. “We want to create as soon as possible the conditions for getting back into our headquarters in Blainville, with its spacious offices and huge windowing, its gyms and training rooms, cafeterias, golf simulators, and all those opportunities to work together that everybody misses so much. "
This bonus also extends to any new hires – with director of operations Paul Lavallée adding that DLGL is bracing for a hybrid model of working, essentially splitting employee time between home and the office.
“We have proven that we can be just as efficient in working from home mode, but efficiency and costs are not the only yardsticks,” he explained. “We have always been ready to invest in assets and organizational modes in support of a culture where people can be happy. This is a new additional opportunity to do better. And a complete vaccination will bring us closer to all these options."
Money can make a difference when it comes to encouraging employee vaccinations. A recent report from Blackhawk Network found that money was the top incentive for people to get the shot – with two thirds of respondents claiming they’d accept anything from $10 to $1,000.
