PH company offers break-up leave, date allowance for employees

If you are on the brink of a parting of the ways with a special someone, it is important to have an amazing support system that’s got your back.

An advertising agency in Pasig City is the ideal place to nurse a broken heart as it lets its employees take a leave from work to get over a breakup.

IdeaXMachina (IXM) also offers incentives such as date and wedding allowance to its employees in exchange for their hard work and dedication to the company.

“People spend a lot of time with advertising [agencies] at the expense of sleep, the expense of family, at the expense of health, and expense of love,” GMA News quoted IXM CEO Clemente Domingo.

Domingo considers a break-up an acceptable reason for an employee to take a leave of absence.

“You need that break to be able to produce good work,” shared an employee of the company.

On the other hand, single employees can claim a ‘dating allowance’ worth ₱1,500, six times a year. The agency also pays up to ₱150,000 for the wedding reception of an employee.

“Baka mas maganda na i-incentivize natin, i-encourage natin yung life outside of the work,” CEO Domingo added.
