The Rise of Business-Driven Network Security

 Beyond the IT Department In the era of ubiquitous data and ever-evolving cyber threats, network security can no longer be relegated solely to the IT department. Businesses are witnessing a paradigm shift towards business-driven network security, where leadership actively participates in safeguarding their digital assets. This collaborative approach transcends departmental boundaries, fostering a more robust and holistic security posture. The Evolving Threat Landscape: Today’s cyber adversaries are more sophisticated and targeted than ever before.

How To Create An Awesome Employee Experience In A Post-Pandemic Era

 


Authored by Girish Rowjee, Co-Founder & CEO, greytHR

The COVID-19 pandemic forced many organisations across the globe to adopt a Work-From-Home (WFH) mode of working since early 2020. While this was done in order to maintain social distancing at the workplace, many employees have since shifted their preferences towards WFH. There is a marked change in how they perceive an ideal work-life balance, bringing about a tectonic shift in workplace dynamics. Additionally, challenges such as higher job insecurity and increasing demand for job personalization must be addressed to retain talent. It has made it imperative for organisations to employ different means for enhancing the overall employee experience. Adopting a flexible working culture and using more collaboration-focused technologies are some of the outcomes of this approach.

Let us look at aspects, if incorporated, which can enhance the overall employee experience in a hybrid workplace and help companies nurture a happy and loyal workforce.

Augmenting employee experience with technological aids

Employee experience is described as the average sum of employee perceptions about the experiential benefits of employment. Great employee experience can lead to better employee engagement, thereby resulting in better organizational effectiveness. On the flip side, bad experiences at the workplace can be detrimental to an organisation, making it important for companies to maintain a key focus on employee wellbeing.

Workflow management, pay benefits, and involvement in the organization’s vision and mission are just some elements that impact employee experience today. Companies need to adopt multiple channels for communicating with their staff to understand what they lack at the workplace and take quick actions to resolve them.

Technological solutions, such as a mobile leave and attendance module, online knowledge portal and messaging app for internal communication, can improve the overall working experience. By using powerful analytics provided by an advanced HRMS, organisations can also continuously evolve their HR strategy and employ innovative means to exceed employee expectations.

Alleviating challenges associated with WFH

A recent poll has indicated that 48% of employees prefer to work remotely in a post-pandemic world, necessitating companies to adopt a hybrid working model.

This increase in demand for a flexible work environment puts the onus on employers

to recognize and mitigate the challenges involved in working from home. The first step towards this is providing employees with work essentials to improve their physical and emotional state while performing their duties.
