The ‘new normal’, catalysed by COVID-19, forces wide and sweeping changes on the world of work. But, there is a lot for agencies to think about as, our partner, Nick Woodward of ETZ Payments.
Getting candidates back to work after the coronavirus pandemic
The shockwaves that COVID-19 has sent through the economy continue to create high amplitude ripples that alter the operating environment. And in terms of our ‘success’ at defeating the virus, you would have to be very brave to even hazard a guess at the broad outcomes. There is still a very long way to go.
Right now, recruitment businesses need to get on with returning temps and contractors to work. However, there are some critical factors resulting from the coronavirus pandemic that agencies need to take into account.
Firstly, there is a need to understand the changes to the business environment, and what the changes mean for how companies operate. Secondly, there is a need to understand the impact of the crisis on candidates and how it might affect their thinking and outlook. Thirdly, there is the need to figure out the right approach, that enables your candidates to get back to work, safely.
With many factors and influences in play, it can seem a bit daunting trying to organise your thoughts.
