Reflect and Re-adjust
[vc_row][vc_column]
[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=”no_bg”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Employees do have personal lives and need that reassurance that if anything happened, their employer is there to support them no matter what, but also, private circumstances can change at a flick of a switch so the question is, ‘How nimble is your company systems and processes?’ – test yourself….

[vc_column_text]1. Do you have cloud technology, so employees can log-on wherever they need to work?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
2. Have you implemented live sharing, like for example Google Drive, to allow multiple immediate live changes/updates?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
3. Do you trust all your employees?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
4. Do each team member have key responsibilities, so you can see if work is not being generated?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
5. What central consistent communication channel do you have in place to ensure all staff are supported if they have a question and need further clarity/help?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
6. For remote workers, do you or a line manager receive an update before they leave the business for the day?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
7. How do you currently track employees actions each day and whether they’ve completed them?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
8. Are you aware and have access to all project information/templates/
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
9. Do you have a central CRM system, so you are able to see activity and communications within employees and clients?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
10. Do you have VOIP, reducing the pressure of the office phones not being covered?
[/vc_column_text]
[vc_column_text]Clearly, as a business owner/employer, you will want to be saying ‘YES’ to all of the above, but if a few questions have flagged ‘HIGH RISK’, then there is no time like the present to implement a new system or process. Employees are able to continue working even if they can’t physically get into the office.
