Loyalty360 Reads: November 14: IKEA Launches Social Fund, Food Lion’s Hunger Relief Campaign, and More

IKEA Launches Social Fund to Assist Employees

IKEA is launching a $10 million social fund to help employees who are struggling with the economy. In addition, the retailer is offering larger staff discounts to support employees struggling to cope with higher living costs. The fund would be available in all markets, and the money would not be a loan.

All staff can apply for the fund, and the company will assess on a case-by-case basis how much they may receive. The employer said it would also double staff discounts to 30% and is looking into other additional compensation enhancements after it invested in growing employees' compensation and benefits.
