How to Ensure the Health and Well-being of Your Employees During COVID?

Employers worldwide are concerned about the safety and wellness of their workers through the pandemic. Though highly controlled, Covid still has its repercussions in every industry and offices are struggling to regain normalcy. Protecting the employees who are willing to come back to work is a huge challenge for the organizational managers and leaders.

Arrange for workplace testing

Concierge healthcare practices provide a substantial helping hand to employers worried about their staff’s safety. They offer Covid group tests on office premises and deliver the results quickly. They identify and isolate the vulnerable workers, and provide the additional help by giving them immunity boosters, energy shots, and IV drips to combat weakness-related issues.

IV drips for preventing Covid and recovering quickly from the illness are also given in the office, making the employees more comfortable giving up remote work. Trusted names like Concierge MD LA, The Wellness Co, NewLife Med, and Mobile IV Medics provide immune-boosting shots for people with Covid symptoms. They offer house call services, and employees can book them to treat the elderly or other dependents in their homes if required.

Educate employees

Educate the employees, assuring them this is a battle the world is winning successfully with the help of science and technology. Educate them on the dwindling statistics of the Covid spreading pattern, its latest mutation, and how to stay safe. Stay alert and take steps to handle the employees’ mental stress and fear. Several employees who refuse to return from remote work fear they might not be able to take good care of their children or parents.

The death or loss of some near and dear ones creates uncertainty about leaving their dear ones. Some employees need a listening ear, and letting out their stress will make them feel relaxed. Talk to them and show them the situation is returning to normal, and they need to worry less every day, and it is the right time to return to normalcy.

Follow safety rules strictly

Strictly enforce safety rules in the office to ensure one person’s carelessness does not affect others. Impose strict fines if they do not follow the rules and are consistently negligent in safety measures. Take all the necessary precautions in the office to maintain social distancing, sterilize the premises regularly, and insist on compulsory personal safety equipment usage.

Monitor the employees when they use office transport, participate in group meetings, and work in the office. It must become a habit to use safety equipment and stay at a distance from others for every employee, from the top level to the new intern. Reward those who follow the safety rules perfectly to inspire the other employees.

Create a positive attitude

Several employees suffer from physical and mental issues due to Covid, and they might not communicate it efficiently. Those who have recovered might have problems with hearing, taste, and even severe physical weakness. Those who are isolated from someone they love because of Covid will live in fear and sorrow every minute, wondering whether they will recover.

Such things will affect their productivity, and their team leader or manager must identify the underlying issue. If a person acts differently or their productivity goes down consistently, talk to them, listen to them, and arrange therapy for them if necessary. Get to know their close colleagues and ask all your staff or team to support and help each other as they might face the same situation soon. Maintain a positive attitude assuring the affected ones that they are supported and valued.

Urge them to help others

Set up a helping hub with the right experts to assist the staff if they face grave issues. Empower them to guide employees towards the right therapists, drip treatment, hospital, or other required help. Set up a team or hire an expert who assists at out-of-office hours, and regularly encourage employees to approach them as needed. Provide a hotline number to call and maintain a helpdesk partnering with third-party agencies to provide such help.

Ask for volunteers among the employees to help the expert, and many will come forward. Staff in the same office will usually cooperate to help each other, and people coming forward to help others will often start to realize their fears are baseless and petty. Expand the network, give each employee a small part, and indulge in some community work collectively once in a while. Such activities will instill great satisfaction and pride, driving away stress.
