many cases it can be seen that there are employees working outside the office
premises and it is not that manage them. There are certain ways to make these
employees working outside the office premise.
Setting
clear expectations is one of the one stop solutions to manage employees working
outside the office premise. Trust and transparency are the foundation of every
successful business venture. There needs to be an element of trust as well as
transparency between the boss and the employees and all other staff of a
particular organisation or business venture. It is mandatory that both you and
your employee should discuss in detail about the various happenings taking
place in the organisation or the business set up. There should also be a clear
and transparent communication between the boss and the employees regarding the
mutual expectations of the working details, communication, achieving the target
by the deadline and the various desirables at the start of the business. Monitoring and assessing
the performance of people who work outside the office premises is perhaps the
most significant managerial challenge. It can be helpful to measure their
effectiveness in terms of their output rather than the hours they work.
Every business involves the use of some sort of
equipment which employees need to do their job, and this equipment is generally
provided by the business. While some personal use of business equipment is
realistically to be expected, problems can arise when the personal use is
excessive.
Problems that can arise in the personal use of
equipment that belongs to the business, such as computers, tools, or vehicles,
include:
· Broken equipment, which may cause
disputes over who is responsible for repair
·
Lost productivity, as employees use
work time for personal tasks involving business equipment
·
Premature wear and maintenance on the
equipment
· Morale problems if certain personal use
habits are suddenly curtailed or if only some employees are allowed to use the
equipment
Telecommuting
has increased in popularity among employees and employers. Rather than sitting
on congested highways during morning and evening commutes, modern workers can
go to work at home, using technology to connect them with co-workers,
customers and suppliers. Employees can spend the reclaimed time with family and
friends or fulfilling personal obligations. As a result, modern employment
opportunities can offer an improved balance between personal and work life that
results in better health and enhanced job satisfaction and performance.
