Ditching work for a date on Tinder is now a reality - a convenient escape route for those seeking romantic rendezvous
Modern Workplaces Embrace 'Tinder Leave': A New Approach to Employee Well-being
In a bid to promote work-life balance and foster employee happiness, some forward-thinking companies are introducing an innovative perk: 'Tinder Leave'. This wellness benefit, offered by companies such as Whiteline Group and Singapore's Gushcloud International, provides employees with paid time off to go on dates and pursue romantic relationships, often facilitated through dating apps like Tinder[1][2][3].
Whiteline Group, a marketing firm based in Bangkok, was one of the first companies to introduce this unique policy in response to growing demand from staff. The company provides all employees with six-month subscriptions to Tinder Gold and Platinum, and employees are entitled to take time off for around one Tinder date per month[1][2][3].
Recently, a Whiteline Group employee shared her experience of using the 'Tinder leave' perk on TikTok. She spent her time off cycling, snacking on watermelon, and having a sit-down meal, emphasising that the policy is not only about dating, but also about slowing down and enjoying moments outside of work[1][2][3].
The introduction of 'Tinder Leave' has sparked a lot of reaction online, with many praising the modern approach to work culture. The traditional nine-to-five work schedule is receiving a significant update, as companies like Whiteline Group aim to attract and retain talent in regions facing declining fertility and marriage rates[1].
The news of 'Tinder Leave' was reported by The New York Post, adding to the buzz around this innovative perk. The indy100 reached out to Whiteline Group for comment regarding the Tinder leave policy, but did not receive a response at the time of publication[1].
As the world of work continues to evolve, it's clear that companies are looking for new ways to support their employees' well-being and happiness. 'Tinder Leave' is a step away from boomer-era work culture, offering a modern approach to work-life balance that could become a trend in the future[1].
