The rise in confirmed cases of Coronavirus (aka COVID-19) across Europe has led to a sudden and drastic shift in working conditions for many. With authorities around the world recommending remote work wherever possible, the everyday working lives of millions have suddenly changed. Now, more than ever before, businesses’ ability to deploy flexible working conditions while trying to keep things running is being tested.
The shift towards a digital workplace has been underway for some time. Paper memos and faxes, for example, gave way to email more than twenty years ago. But lately it feels like things have suddenly sped up. There's endless buzz around increased uptake of technology in the workplace, and it's leaving some managers and employees feeling like they’re playing an endless game of catch-up.

While larger companies have been adopting HR systems over the past few years, it’s now time for smaller companies to act on their need for proper HCM platforms. We also see that bigger organisations are beginning to understand that a solid platform for HCM doesn’t always fit with the point solutions they have in place or are considering. If this sounds familiar, it’s worth investigating systems that are specifically built to support integration.
Christmas and New Year are just around the corner and everywhere we go there are songs and advertisements and heartwarming movies telling us it's the most wonderful time of the year. But for many, it's the toughest.
It’s that time of year again. Days are getting shorter, there’s a nip in the air, and people are coughing and sneezing wherever you look. Flu season is upon us and now is the time for employers to get ahead of the virus.
