A Danish IT company has given all its employees free subscriptions to internet pornography sites.

LL Media in Nordjylland introduced the idea to stop staff accessing adult material at work.

            
The company's director, Levi Nielsen, believes access to porn is a natural fringe benefit, like a free phone or a company car.

''We know that 80% of all hits on the Internet are on porn sites. And we can see that people also surf porn pages during work,'' Nielsen told Danish broadcaster DR Nordjylland.

Nielsen hopes the move will make his staff more relaxed and more efficient on the job.
