I’ve had a bit of time to reflect on the industry recently, and this has nicely coincided with being in the running for a leadership position at a company bigger than I would have expected.

Part of my job role will be to help develop employee benefits packages and I’d like to make sure that quality of sleep is high up on that list. (Why aren’t more companies prioritising this?)

There are some obvious ones I can think of;

- Yearly bedding allowance

- Curtains/shade allowance

- Sleep cycle app subscriptions

Alongside ‘softer’ workflow choices;

- Ensuring no standard work emails/slack sent after 8pm. Would like to go further with this, but it’ll be in a developing economy so expectations will be less favourable. We’re not yet France.

For what it’s worth, I’d also appreciate validation (or dissent) to the idea in general. It’s not something I’ve heard of happening anywhere and having not been through a typical path to leadership I might just be missing something obvious on why this isn’t standard.
