Hybrid working
A cosy coffee bar, a cramped attic, a hammock in some tropical destination or just the good old office: hybrid working has become a regular practice for many screen workers. But how do you keep an eye on wellbeing? And how do you make sure your employees are both productive and healthy? The answer is simple: with a clear and carefully designed homeworking policy. Mensura can help with practical tools and advice, leaving you free to focus on your business (or enjoy that hammock).
Why is a homeworking policy important?
A well-designed homeworking policy provides structure and clarity and promotes trust among your employees and managers – all the key ingredients of a healthy workplace, both within and beyond the walls of your office.
Because without a homeworking policy, several risks quickly arise:
Uncertainty: availability, procedures for work accidents etc.
Neck, shoulder or back complaints (e.g. due to a lack of ergonomic office equipment)
Burnout (e.g. due to a blurring of the line between work and private life)
Lower engagement and a weaker team spirit
Insufficient monitoring of results
Potentially unsafe home workspaces (e.g. in terms of fire safety)
Hybrid working: tools and programs for homeworking and teleworking
A proper teleworking policy requires more than just arrangements about working from home. How do you keep your team connected? How do you align individual needs with the team’s interests? What facilities do you provide? What role do your managers play? And is your organisational culture ready for teleworking?
We’ll be happy to help you find the answers. During an intake meeting, we’ll assess your organisation’s current position, and how we can provide the support you need. We’ll then work together to develop the best solution. To do this, we’ll use practical tools and a learning program to promote wellbeing and productivity, both in the office and off-site.
