COVID-19: The Future of Work | Workforce Solutions
Summary
While many companies have made the commitment to complete a digital migration over the last 10 years, there is still much speculation regarding the future of work. Parents are managing homeschooling in addition to their daily workload because of school and day care closures. In the wake of the current COVID19 crisis, there is a sense that employers will create a better balance of freelancers and full-timers as a part of their overarching talent management strategy. From an employer’s perspective, readying a staff who can operate at maximum capacity from home means they are better equipped to handle the next pandemic or national disaster. In fact, it would be detrimental for businesses to expect things to go back to “business as usual.” Now is the time to plan for the future of work.
