Charter broker LunaJets has been named Best Employer of 2018 by Bilan magazine for companies with fewer than 50 employees. The analysis took into account total compensation, work-life balance, vacation, social corporate responsibility, and other HR considerations and practices.
Bilan noted that its tenth edition of the HR Best Practices Survey revealed three key workplace trends: choice, well-being, and time. Examples included allowing an employee to select between five days of vacation or the equivalent salary, providing amenities to help maintain an employee’s sense of well-being, and allowing staff to purchase additional holidays in exchange for a monthly salary deduction.
LunaJets appears to be following suit with the aforementioned trends and employees are able to access workplace amenities that ensure a healthy work-life balance. Beyond flexible hours, supplementary accident insurance, and training opportunities, LunaJets offers progressive advantages including a massage therapist and pet-friendly offices. Other options, which LunaJets calls unconventional but much appreciated, include a fully equipped gym and unrestricted use of the LunaMobile company pool car.
The Geneva, Switzerland-based private jet booking platform was created in 2007 and offers a free membership program with access to 4,800 aircraft around the world. LunaJets was initially created to resell available seats or empty-leg packages at discounted rates. After the economic crisis, however, the company modified its approach to offer low-commission, on-demand charter for customers wanting to fly privately at the best available price. According to LunaJets, the company is growing at about 35 percent each year.
