All the members of our iHeart Cafe team are given dignity and respect. We do this in simple and practical ways.
First we helped everyone who worked at iHeart to get the proper id proof to open up their own bank account. Employees are paid directly to their bank accounts on the 1st of every month. We believe that on payday that money is no longer ours it is our employees and so why should they have to ask for what is theirs? The cafe also provides Provident Fund and Insurance to the employees. Everyone on the staff has scheduled work hours and a scheduled day off every week. We expect 100% effort from our staff during work hours, and they have the peace of mind knowing that their off hours are 100% their own. These two simple actions, receiving earned money consistently into their bank account and a set schedule, has allowed our team members the security to plan their lives ahead practically and financially. iHeart Cafe also employs part time students from the local colleges. We work with their schedules and involve them in the operations of cafe.
