It's a big deal because other large companies invent "open offices" and "unlimited vacation" policies.
Mhh we're talking about a company that makes furniture here. I bet it's "open factory floor" over there.

That would indeed be newsworthy if countless businesses were to be insisting that they are trying to make their employees wet by pouring sand on them, providing them with T-shirts with the word "WET" printed on it, asking them to wish their dryness away, or (the most enlightened ones) telling their employees to go outside on cloudy days — anything except, you know, simply pouring water on them.
