Incredibly sound boss takes 6,400 employees on holiday

Sounds like our kind of employer...

JOE

You might want to ‘accidentally’ email this story to your manager at some point today.

We’ve already heard about the brilliant boss in the US who increased every employee’s annual salary to £50,000, and now China’s 24th richest man has upped the ante in the battle for the Best Boss of the Year award.

Li Jinyuan, who is President of Tiens Group, a biotechnology multinational based in China, treated 6,400 of the company’s 12,000 strong staff to a four-day holiday in France recently, taking in all the sights in Paris and stopping off at Monaco and Cannes.

And all for the bargain price of £24million.

In total, approximately 30,000 hotel rooms were booked to accommodate the ridiculously large touring party, while TGV had to put on extra trains and staff to provide service to 7,600 seats (Jinyuan took along another 1,000 employees from elsewhere for good measure).

We’d never, ever want to leave JOE (promise boss), but if that day comes, we’re definitely giving this chap a call.
