Having your dry cleaning done, when you are in the office

Could implementing concierge into our employee benefits help with greater productivity and efficiency? The team from Skyhigh.Vip ponders. 

The word 'concierge' has often been perceived as a luxury especially for wealthy individuals buying super-yachts and living in expensive mansions but this stereotype does not strictly ring true.

The concierge industry is no longer just a luxury service anymore. In fact, it’s a remedy for Millennials to balance out their personal and professional lives.

Employers can offer a dedicated team or outsourced concierge companies to assist with a range of lifestyle focused services, to their employees across the board.

These services normally fall under three categories:

• Personal – gift sourcing, organising a cleaner, health, beauty and fitness assistance,
• Social – sourcing and booking any tickets or restaurant reservations,
• Travel – researching the best personalised holiday package, booking flights and accommodations or customised holiday planning.

For example, a high salaried executive who works long hours in sectors such as financial services, may require more time-saving services such as gift sourcing or tailored holiday bookings. However, employees who work at retail stores or F&B industries might be more interested in concert tickets and events.

The question is - Why are we not implementing concierge into our employee benefits when all these big industry players are doing it for greater productivity and efficiency?
