COVID-19 impacted the workforce as we know it on a global level. As countries begin to reopen, it’s important for the technology sector to look towards the future and the new way of work.

One of the biggest questions companies in technology software are asking is: what’s going to happen to our supply chain? From slowed production to delayed transportation, there are a lot of questions on how products and services are going to be delivered. One Deloitte study revealed that employers need to evaluate how disruptions can be mitigated and drive their technology adoption to support “future of work” scenarios.

A comprehensive people management solution can help you and your people remain safe during uncertain times, and help you prepare for a safer tomorrow. From disseminating important information to individuals to assigning field-level security, a best-in-class solution will let you take care of all of your human capital needs from one solution. There are few key factors you need to look at. The first one is your benefits package. COVID-19 has shown just how important a benefits package could be to a person. Look into expanding your benefits offerings to part-time and gig workers, as well as your full-time employees.

Re-evaluate your onboarding process. Is paperwork easy to sign and send electronically? How simple is it for HR and new managers to onboard a new employee without them being face to face? New employees should feel the same level of engagement and open arms as their in-office counterparts do. Plus, you want your people focused on learning the company culture, not waiting for management to figure out how to send a form electronically. Speaking of new processes and technology, it’s important to invest in employee learning. A learning solution can help you tailor content to your employees’ individual needs. Whether you need to teach your whole company a new process, or a new department needs to be upskilled, the right learning platform can be an engaging, safe way to teach your employees.

Now more than ever, it’s important to have an accurate gauge of your employees’ feelings. A sentiment analysis tool can analyze their true emotions in real time, so you can be proactive rather than reactive.
