Recommendation

Business owners in the United States, like many worldwide, shuttered retail outlets in response to the COVID-19 crisis, shifted employees to remote work, and restructured to support worker safety and productivity. Now, some companies are reopening. Human resources expert and consultant Josh Bersin offers insight into the safety protocol mind-set, along with examples from manufacturers already up and running. Business may never go back to the old normal, but you may now have the perfect opportunity for transformation.

Take-Aways

  • Companies responding to the COVID-19 pandemic go through three stages: “React, Respond and Return.”
  • The “Return” phase – when companies grapple with protocols for bringing employees back to work – offers opportunities to redefine work for the future.
  • Every region and locality is on a different recovery schedule; some have months to go. In others, people are getting back to work.
