Are you hesitant about close contact and human touch when it comes to work colleagues? Then the Danish company Encounter, which operates in the field of psychology, is not for you.

Encounter has written in the employee handbook that employees should give each other a hug in the morning when the workday begins, as well as at the end of the day when heading home, reports Danish Radio.

A hug creates an enormous amount of warmth and a sense of being supported, motivates the psychologist and the company's CEO Neela Maria Sris' decision in an interview with Danish Radio.

Newly hired employees are therefore encouraged to read up on the policy when applying for jobs at the company.
