Keeping Remote Employees Productive During Pandemic Fatigue

The response to pandemic has caused rapid change in workers lives and may are growing weary of isolation, so how do you go about keeping remote employees productive?

We have all had to adapt quickly to the shelter-in-place world and remote office work. As a result of limiting on-premise work, company culture has been deeply affected. 63% of workers have cited disappearing workplace as a side-effect of COVID-19, despite efforts to create a virtual company culture, according to Clutch research. Here are some more takeaways from a recent Clutch study:

  • Offices are increasingly investing in virtual communications. 26% say their company has provided its employees greater access to communication since the outbreak began.
  • Attempts to foster a sense of company culture remotely have faced an uphill battle as “Fun” initiatives have largely failed.
  • Remote work has created increased managerial availability
