Campione and Hackney has instituted “Pet Friendly Friday” during which day the staff and attorneys are encouraged to bring their dogs to work. Scientific studies increasingly confirm the benefits of pets in the workplace. In 2012, a study by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University found employees who brought their dogs to work had reduced stress throughout the day compared to colleagues without pets. Studies have consistently demonstrated that pets in the workplace contribute to stress reduction, as well as employee teamwork and satisfaction. “Employees who can bring their pets to work are also more productive,” said Steven Feldman, executive director of the Human Animal Bond Research Initiative (HABRI) Foundation in Washington, D.C. Employees are more likely to collaborate and work better in teams because pets help forge social connections.
Not only our employees benefit from our firm’s pet friendly policy. The Law Office of Campione & Hackney, P.A. extends our pet friendly environment for our clients, as we share an appreciation of for our fury friends.
