Physical wellbeing is promoted through activities such as yoga, kickboxing, and nutrition webinars. Notably, animal therapy workshops, such as cat art jamming and dog yoga, have proven immensely popular among employees.
To encourage self-care, Deloitte offers flexible work policies, including unlimited leave, and organises ‘Eatz@Deloitte’, encouraging quality time with families. The Deloitte Recreational Club hosts social and sports activities, fostering a sense of community.
