COVID-19 is slowly becoming the new norm, and many believe that it will impact our lives and the way we approach work for good. It is time to switch our focus from short-term fixes that will "hold us over” to long-term solutions which can provide you and your employees with both safety and continuous growth in even the worst of times.
The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work has compiled an extensive set of information and preventative advice for workplaces, but new rules and regulations are coming into place on an almost daily basis. McKinsey set out three rules for manufacturing companies to follow, which will enable companies to cope with the changes:
- Protect the workforce
- Manage risks to ensure business continuity
- Drive productivity at a distance
Here is a quick glimpse of how the Accruent Portfolio can enable you to follow these simple rules and not only get through COVID-19 but also achieve business success while keeping your employees safe.
