Six key strategies to align to employee needs and enhance employee experience

With rapid changes in the world of work, employers need to focus on transforming employee experience to ensure business success. Research reveals that 55% of blue-collar employees feel that their employers do not understand their daily financial or personal challenges. At Wipro, we believe that this challenge can be addressed by investing in the right HR technology that delivers a superior, end-to-end employee experience. In addition, new digital capabilities such as self-service, real-time dashboards, virtual IVRs, and attendance management systems can be accessed through mobile apps and enable everyone, including the field workforce, to log their in/out time in a few clicks. 

In today’s competitive labor market, it is crucial to make genuine efforts to secure, engage, and nourish the organization’s talent. Just like white-collar employees, blue-collar employees also want positive engagement from leaders in their organizations.

Here are six key actions that enterprises can take to enhance blue-collar employee engagement and experience:

• Simplify and digitize attendance management systems for blue-collar employees
• Choose an all-digital onboarding ecosystem
• Focus on employees’ physical and mental well-being
• Make a simple transition from “role” to “skill”
• Deploy the right reward and recognition strategy
• Invest in smarter, relevant performance management systems (PMS)
