Remote Working has taken the labour market by storm. With COVID forcing employers who have the capacity to adopt the practice, but had concerns about the productivity of staff with that model of work, to adopt the practice or disintegrate. Consequently, people are realizing the benefits of remote working, and negative myths about remote working are being busted. It is probable that this will accelerate the normalization of remote working, making it become the new norm post-COVID! But the truth is, not every business succeeds with remote working, and not every business had a positive experience with the practice amid COVID. Although, this is usually due to the lack of experience with the practice, complemented by the absence of relevant technology to bolster team productivity and sustainability. This is therefore why we have put together a comprehensive list of tools for adopting remote working.

These three steps are: the provision of an instant safe space, employees describe how they feel and what they need with the Safe Exchange anonymity engine; the standardization of openness, with response to feedback and dissection of survey results, followed by 1-on-1 discussions with team members to get to the heart of any issue together; and collaborative action, with team-based plans being put in motion, then you garner feedback and start the loop again! Surveys, conversation engines, anonymous feedback, top-notch HR advice, invaluable integration and much more to ensure that your remote team feels appreciated and acknowledged with Officevibe!

5. PayScale

PayScale is a compensation management software which provides users with extensive salary data. The software helps employers understand the right pay for every position and communicate about compensation. Hiring for remote work also means hiring in locations which you’re not familiar with, with salaries and costs of living in that area being important to determine the salary of remote workers. Companies can choose to use different strategies to determine the salary of the remote worker: whether it is according to the living prices of the area or with the salaries paid to other employees in their business. Both of these have their pros and cons and depend on the company’s talent acquisition approach, but these decisions need to be made with sufficient data and information. Get access to trusted crowdsourced salary data, with 65+ million salary profiles, and 2000+ companies representing 2.5 million employees participating in PayScale’s surveys and access to third party surveys. Get actionable insights with powerful reports and use PayScale with ease. On the whole, accelerate your compensation processes, streamline survey participation, easily activate data and get easy access to data.

In conclusion, we recommend you to use these tools to adopt remote working efficiently and develop a productive and sustainable model. Prepare for the post-pandemic world by equipping your company with the necessary tools to adopt remote working.
