How to keep a remote workforce connected

Some companies have always had distributed workforces – logistics companies with small armies of drivers, sales people who are always on the road, and other types of businesses where staff don’t come in to the same place everyday. But as more and more employees telecommute the challenges of keeping a distributed workforce engaged and connected is affecting ever more companies.

One strategy to keep your workforce connected is through the creation of an HR portal. In this Process Perspectives podcast, Allyson Barbieri, HR Shared Services Manager for the Visiting Nurse Service of New York, the USA’s largest home health organization, offers tips on how to create an effective HR portal that can drive engagement with your distributed workers. Allyson is interviewed by Barbara Hodge, the editor of Shared Services & Outsourcing Network (SSON), one of our partner portals.
