When asked what would make them “more happy today,” about one-quarter of participating Klicksters said bringing puppies (or their own dogs) into the office would bring them joy; over 20 percent said they would love more free food and drink, such as gourmet cupcakes, ice cream, and barista-grade coffee; 13 percent put surprise extra vacation time at the top of their happy list; and 10 percent said getting free tickets for cultural attractions or travel would be blissful. Other top responses included getting in-office manicures and salon treatments, formal afternoon tea service, and doing more corporate philanthropy.

The voluntary poll captured 335 responses on the company’s intranet from March 7th to 12th in the lead-up to the UN’s International Day of Happiness on March 20th.

Earlier this month, Klick was named a Best Managed Company for the 10th consecutive year and the Best Workplace for Women for the third year in a row.
