Indian firm FoxMandal Little has launched a new yoga and gymnasium program for staff at its corporate office. The free initiative offers staff the option of either personalized or group Yoga classes.

 

Managing partner Som Mandal says that the facilities are intended to reduce stress and help employees lead happier lives, in addition to being beneficial to the firm’s bottom line. "The program is set to have a positive effect on employee commitment to work, staff turnover and recruitment and performance productivity." 

 

The ‘work-life balance’ mantra has been given a good run of late by law firms in Asia. Last month Singapore firm Rajah & Tann created a ‘chill-out’ room for its 600- plus employees fitted out with Nintendo Wii and Microsoft Xbox consoles and a pool table.
