Having Fun at Work with Friends - A workplace filled with fun amongst friends is GOOD for business. Find out why. Hire the Person - Not the Resume - When we talk with potential new hires, we look for character and personality traits that will contribute positively to our culture. Those don't show up on resumes.

We look for ways to have all parties involved in a situation "win". 20 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo • Flexible scheduling from week to week, designed to accommodate doctor appointments, anniversaries, children's sports and school plays or other important events. • Day care centers in our Corporate Offices/Distribution Center in Houston, TX and our Executive Offices in Fremont, CA. We've noticed that employees' eyes and morale brighten when they see the children out on their "buggy rides" or hear their voices in the hallways. And, of course, their parents appreciate the chance to spend extra time each day with them. • Job switching and redesign to accommodate changing needs like having children, taking care of an older relative or simply wanting to spend less time in remote locations or at work. Telecommuting has been implemented with certain office-based employees, and each individual's skills and job requirements are considered when looking at job design alternatives. 21 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo • 3-week Sabbatical Leaves awarded after every five years of fulltime service to encourage employees to take an extended break away from work. When combined with their 3-4 week annual vacation leave, each person can actualize dreams of travel and adventure, spend quality time with their children or significant other, pursue special projects or simply rediscover the meaning of life away from the workplace. • Specialized Training focused on goal setting, personal organization, communications skills, stress management and relationship building. All of these topics benefit the whole person, affecting their success at home as well as at work. And our trainers take the time to emphasize ways in which these skills can be applied in their family relationships. 22 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo • Corporate family events such as summer picnics and Holiday season parties that provide an opportunity not only to play together with our family members but also to honor and thank spouses and significant others for supporting our employees during the stressful periods of the retail industry. • Wellness Program that includes a corporate Wellness Director who assists employees in designing an appropriate exercise program and monitors their progress. Wellness information is presented in our corporate newsletter, and reduced prices on nutrition, family health and exercise books are available through our discounted corporate book store. Wellness has a substantial impact on the quality of life and self-esteem of our employees, providing more energy to succeed inside and outside the workplace. 23 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo • Educational expense reimbursement for employees so they can take classes and workshops for personal interest or degree programs. • Corporate Counselor available by phone to assist employees in dealing with personal and family relationships and situations. This confidential assistance is not connected with our health insurance, and many employees have overcome emotional and mental frustration through the guidance of our Ph.D. psychologist. • Family friendly hiring policy where we encourage family members of current employees to join the Men's Wearhouse team. We have found that the practice of hiring family members and friends of our employees makes good business sense. It also benefits those families by giving them opportunities to share experiences together while at work. 24 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo • Annual "Aloha" awards given to our outstanding employees to honor their service and sales performance on both an individual and team basis. Aloha awards provide a one-week all expenses paid vacation to Europe, the Caribbean or Hawaii for the employee and their spouse or significant other. • Sick time donations from one employee to another that inspires a corporate "extended family" attitude. When someone has an extended absence due to personal illness or maternity leave, their team members can donate unused sick leave for up to eight weeks in any twelve-month period. 25 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo • Financial assistance to help with unexpected expenses that have impacted our employees and their families. The company provides interest-free loans that are repaid through payroll deductions. And the Willie Lopez Emergency Assistance Fund -- funded and administered separately by employees -- provides a financial safety net of up to $10,000 in any one year for employees faced with a financial crisis. Grants are made by an employee committee and have helped employees overcome a wide variety of emergency expenses so they could get back on their feet and resume their lives. 26 Equilibrando Familia y Trabajo As you can see, our company uses a variety of methods to support employees in their personal lives outside of work. And yet we never forget that the culture inside the workplace -- based on values and principles that honor and respect individuals and their need to grow and succeed -- strongly influences each member of our corporate tribe. A person's quality of life at work and at home affect each other. That's why we take our relationships at work personally. 27 A TÍTULO DE RESUMEN El negocio hay que llevarlo para obtener un beneficio...o se morirá... ...Pero cuando alguien intenta llevar un negocio solo para hacer beneficio... también se morirá, ya que carece de una razón para seguir existiendo.
