The Nova Poshta company reconsidered its initial decision to fire employees who drove a stray dog out of a branch during a heatwave. This was reported by the company's CEO, Yeven Tafiichuk, on Facebook.
- The story about the dog touched all of us. I myself am the owner of two dogs, and almost each of us has a pet at home. There were a lot of emotions around this situation, including inside the company. And it was exactly on emotions that we based the first personnel decisions. Looking back, I understand: it was wrong. The guys themselves, when they realized the consequences of their action, were among the first to join the search for the dog. That is why you saw them in photographs on the day he was found, - Tafiychuk noted.
He added that if a person realizes their mistake, takes responsibility for it, and is ready to change – “they deserve a chance.”
Tafiychuk also emphasized that the situation highlighted the absence of clear regulations in the company on how to act when an animal ends up in a branch. Currently, Nova Poshta is updating internal rules to combine humane treatment of animals with customer safety.
- And yes - the dog is safe and receives the necessary care. We will continue to monitor its condition. For us, this story should end not with another wave of mutual accusations, but with conclusions, a second chance for people, and systemic changes in the company, - Tafiychuk concluded.
Nova Poshta workers pushed the dog with a mop, - the company's reaction.
