As of August 26th, National Dog Day, Talk Shop will offer team members the chance to take time off around the adoption of a new pet. This paid time off policy will allow new dog or cat owners time to focus on bonding with their new family member. It will help them have some time to adjust to their new pet owning duties, and let their new ‘fur babies’ settle into their new home.
Talk Shop is thrilled to announce that we’re the proud recipient of BC’s Top Employers’ award for 2021. In a year when British Columbia’s public health authorities have been widely praised for their response to the pandemic, the province’s leading employers have stepped up with strong and comprehensive responses to keep employees safe and help protect the community.
For most of us working in a digital career, working from home might not seem like a big transition. But as we start to settle in to the third week of mandatory social distancing, it can be easy to let go of our productive habits, such as getting dressed each day and socializing with both colleagues and friends.
In times of bad news, trust is built when organizations remain calm and act proactively.
This expands into our line of work, which has meant advising on how to plan for and communicate about the spread of a highly contagious disease within a variety of businesses.
This year’s International Women’s Day theme is #EachforEqual and at Talk Shop, we couldn’t be more enthusiastic about the movement.
It’s never been a better time to be an employee in many professions across Canada.
