Employer kisses female staff daily

AN employer kisses his female staff every morning as a routine to foster good relationships among colleagues, China Press reported.

Quoting China’s Xin Min Wang daily, it said the staff had to queue up “to accept” the kiss from the man who owned the Beijing company and created the rule.

This “fostering of relationships” gesture is done between 9am and 9.30am every day, it was reported.

The employer claimed that he got the idea from an American company, which practised such morning kisses.

He said his employees were more united as a result of it.

But members of the public were shocked to find out about the rule after a video clip of the man kissing his staff was circulated on the Internet.
