In a world where the modern workplace is being redefined, there is no better time to try something new and better integrate practices that help boost your employees’ well-being. Virtual workshops are a perfect way to foster a more sustainable work environment and ensure your teams are engaged, connected, and communicating—even if they’re not all in one place.
In the last year and a half, the coronavirus pandemic disrupted work in ways we never saw coming; business executives were forced to reorganize their business models to remain in business and cushion the effect of the pandemic. As part of these responses, businesses remodeled their work structures to allow most of their employees to work from home. While this might have helped companies get the needed output level, it came with enormous challenges, including increased workplace stress, inadequate technology, and worsened social isolation. Now, with widespread vaccinations and declining infection rates, employers are considering reopening their office buildings fully.
Employees face multiple challenges working from home that heighten their stress levels and keep them feeling fatigued. Pivoting workplace solutions to mitigate these concerns is, therefore, necessary to improve employee health and maximize remote work
It’s been over a year since the pandemic began, and millions of Americans have lived through lockdowns, work from home (WFH) and job losses.
While job searching in the pandemic has been difficult, it has not stopped hiring or internal mobility. COVID has created an opportunity for individuals to realize their desire for change and to do work they believe in, and for companies to become more flexible and creative in leveraging and tapping into employees’ and candidates’ inherent strengths.
Although the stay-at-home restrictions have since been relaxed in many parts of the country and several workers have returned to on-site work, many employers have created long-term remote work policies to keep their staff working from home.
The right well-being program technology can help employees and beneficiaries engage in wellness no matter where they’re located, using fully integrated web portals and interactive apps. Leading well-being technology companies are providing ways for wellness programming to be accessed by all employees and their loved ones, to bring health back home.
