Getting back on track
How are your/your company’s plans for re-opening the office space for 2021?
Have you now reopened?
Are you ready to close again at a moment’s notice?
Are your people pleased to be back at the office?
Are they concerned with hygiene?
Are they concerned about the commute?
Is being back in the office invigorating for them?
What does coming back mean to them? Perhaps job security, reduced financial strain, greater integration, and social interaction…
How do we ensure old habits of working closely, or not social distancing, don’t creep back in?
Are the new policies enacted to ensure safety being adhered to?
Are employers communicating clearly about expectations and requirements of workplace attendance? Are they flexible?
Are your team leaders burning out from the great ‘balancing act’ of 2020/21?
We’re not out of the woods yet…
The workplace culture and leaders’ openness are going to be critical in the coming months. The more welcoming your culture, the more likely employees will want to return and will feel safe enough to do so.
Are your people leaders ready and able to react and respond to stressed and worried team members? Do they know what to look out for? Do they know how to respond, or will they just send people to HR for a reaction?
