Emerging New HR/IR/Welfare Policies
Since the last COVID situation to the current one, many companies are considering revising, updating, and revalidating their various HR policies and practices. In many industries, structures and approaches might have also changed.
Let us initiate our knowledge and experience sharing on this by discussing any changes that might have been implemented in respective industries, sectors, regions, or groups, along with their experiences, initiatives, and approaches.
I have observed, for example:
a. Improved and personalized communications
b. A focus on wellness programs rather than only annual medical exams
c. An emphasis on FTE and its introduction in their respective standing orders, etc.
I request elite members to shed more light and provide inputs.

Yes, the suggestions of Ram Sir are definitely very important these days. I feel, in particular, the need for an employee-centric approach, keeping the communication link open, and the top management must be proactive in demonstrating its concern for the people and their families.

Apart from the above activities, you can include an online quiz on COVID and work-related topics, whereby employees would gain more knowledge and satisfaction.
Wellness Webinar
Please conduct a wellness webinar by trained doctors about safety on COVID and supporting a patient during the COVID stage. This would give confidence among people during this pandemic.
Team-Building Activities
Conduct online team-building activities and games that boost their morale during their work-from-home assignment.
Hope this would suffice.

Dear professionals, I am a faculty member in the Department of Management, and I am planning to conduct research on emerging employee welfare policies due to the impact of the COVID crisis. Please share your views and ideas on this topic. Thank you.

Dear Vicree, it is a good initiative. In management circles, development and performance are often discussed, while the concept of welfare is rarely mentioned. Mindful welfare is the need of the hour. In such a situation, your efforts are noteworthy. I wish you all the best. Once you have completed, please share the outcomes.
