Managing your workforce

With seemingly every news bulletin delivering a fresh blow to our fragile economy it’s easy to think the only businesses which will find a way through the recession will be those who think on their feet and react fast.
But we’re encouraging our clients to take a more creative, long term view.
I know that goes against the grain when all the graphs are heading the wrong way but it’s less about knee jerk reactions and more about making sure everything’s in place to provide the most stable business now and in the future.
Redundancy is, unfortunately, common place but is it always necessary?
Making people redundant and recruiting again later when the market picks up is expensive – and doesn’t always paint the best picture of a company as a fair employer either.
We’re working with our clients to ensure they’re getting the best out of their employees possibly through retraining and, if necessary, refocusing resources. It’s known as smartworking.
There is help for businesses looking to ensure they’re getting the best out of their workforce and operating to their optimum. And there’s no shame in asking for it.

Feel free to get in touch with us and we’re always interested to hear ideas of how else we might be able to use our expertise to help companies. info@annecorder.co.uk
