One of the most salient examples of this whole process being successful was through the implementation of a Flexwork Arrangement Program for a client during the pandemic lockdowns . The strategy was designed to manage downtime in the workforce and attendance through a network of offices while retaining employees and improving workflow among staff . In initial client meetings , the RISK model was applied to identify scope and build out a plan for the project . Getting the whole company on board was accomplished by engaging key opinion leaders within the organization , identified by the client across functions and office locations . Perhaps the largest component of this program was the flexible work options . Many of the employee benefits offered by the client required a minimum number of work hours for eligibility , thus the benefits and how to deal with them needed to be examined .
Taskforce work sessions were scheduled and a taskforce charter was created by the opinion leaders during the first session . This charter identified expectations and assignments moving forward . During the second session , the work was split into two sections — one focusing on employee benefits and how they could be amended to handle any gaps , and a second to dig into the nuts and bolts of the program description and tools .
In the end , the program was successfully implemented and welcomed by employees as a part of their overall benefits package . Further Flexwork arrangements were made in subsequent months . The discussions which were triggered by those arrangements brought forth team deliberations resulting in process improvement , cross training , and an increased transfer of knowledge across multiple worksites between workers . Satisfaction , engagement , and employee retention likewise improved .
Good management teams and good businesses know what they are good at and know when it is time to enlist help . Even the best , though , can sometimes miss the forest for the trees . HR Executive Partners aims to fill that gap and support client company objectives while bringing positive return on investment every time .
