Why this hotel is recruiting cats

A hotel in Abu Dhabi has employed eight cats to help its employees beat stress.

On Sunday, Jannah Hotels and Resorts – the Bedouin-inspired collection of luxury hotels – announced that the decision behind adding the feline pets to the workforce was to assist employees in unwinding and increasing productivity.  

So far, the cats are employed at the hotel’s head office located in Abu Dhabi.
Nehme Imad Darwiche. Chief executive officer and founder of Jannah Hotels and Resorts, said the ‘office cat’ policy was initiated in 2015.

Darwiche said: “Studies reflect that nurturing pets in an office environment increases office communication and lowers the stress of its professionals significantly. We identify as a team that harbors a deep love of felines and consider our pets as a vital part of the Jannah family.”
