10th IKEA in Asia

Did you know that the Philippine store will be the 10th in the entire Southeast Asia? Originally, this store should have opened this year. But, due to the pandemic and some other changes, it’ll be open by the second (2nd) quarter of the year 2021.

In addition to that, the company said that they’ll offer about 8,000 different products in the store. Moreover, if you’re stressed out or worried when it comes to being a part-time employee, you shouldn’t.

Georg Platzer, IKEA Philippines Market Development Manager and Store Manager said that they treat part-time members or employees as full-time members as well.

What this means is that these employees are also given the same treatment and the same benefits as that of full-timers.

Part-timers are treated like full-time members of the family, with all the same benefits as full-timers on a prorated basis—including health insurance, annual leave, subsidized meals, and Ikea discounts.”
