Who doesn’t feel good about getting an early mark from work, especially on a Friday? Sounds good doesn’t it?
Throughout the month of November, Diabetes Australia-NSW is giving you the opportunity to do just that, by having your organisation participate in Finish Friday @ 4.
Finish Friday @ 4 is an event which involves businesses and organisations allowing their employees to “Finish @ 4”, or an hour earlier than normal, on any Friday in November, and for the luxury of doing so, employees are required to make a tax deductible donation to support the work of Diabetes Australia-NSW.
If you’re the Decision Maker, simply give the “green light” and let your employees know what they need to do.
And if you’re not the big boss, but think this is an easy way to support a great cause, then take this idea to the people who can make the decision, and ask them to register your organisation’s involvement.
Mark the month of November in your calendar and start making your feel good plans for Finishing Friday @ 4.
In the words of 2007 participant, Simon McCarroll, Dealer Principal at Lexus of Chatswood, “We looked at this initiative as a way to increase awareness of this growing epidemic and to build something healthy for our team to do. By finishing Friday at four, the team members who took part are not only helping a great cause, but in our case, are taking the afternoon off to play sport, something that should be encouraged to fight diabetes.
