How employers support their employees
By

Employees always perform at their highest level when they feel their managers back them up when necessary. The pleasant feeling that they are part of a whole and a precious member of the group, makes them do their best at work. Helping and supporting the employees has various dimensions. Those managers who provide a wide range of assistance to their employees tend to get the best results.

One of the most essential matters that employers should do, is to help employees in financial struggles. Many of those who were lucky enough to keep their jobs during the pandemic have encountered such problems and an effective manager must care about these issues. There are many ways to help. Employers must be generous and flexible as much as they can in hard moments like this. Reviewing strict rules, offering additional paid leave, reordering meeting times and predicting a budget for home office devices are among them.

However, financial assistance is not the thing that matters. Providing solutions for mental health issues is vital as well. According to a research, 42% of employees have experienced some level of discomfort during Covid-19. The pandemic has caused uncertainly and uncertainly creates anxiety. In these conditions, employers must provide a space in which employees can speak about problems. Many major organizations have set a certain time in their companies’ intranet called #Let’s-Talk in which employees are allowed to share their personal experiences and receive any kind of consulting that they need.
