Fifty-seven percent of employees are now working from home in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Gallup.1 Remote work can negatively impact employee engagement within organizations, especially if individuals are new to remote work or if they strongly prefer to work from the office.
Employee engagement is critical to a company’s success and retention rates, since engaged employees are people who are involved, enthusiastic, and committed to their jobs. When employees are disengaged, productivity often tanks, as do profits and worker morale.
This is why boosting employee engagement during the coronavirus crisis should be a priority for company leaders.
