In this day and age, many small to medium businesses are finding that the 'after affects' of the GFC and through downsizing, a 'toxic' working environment has been created. The signs of this would be (but are not limited to) :
- employees experiencing and demonstrating signs of stress (illness, absence, decreased efficiency and time management, depression, complacency, lethargy, procrastination, high staff turnover, poor decision making);
- managers feeling unsupported by staff and upper management;
- increase in minor workplace accidents resulting in injury or equipment breakages
- increase in costs associated with Workcover, recruitment and loss of productivity through sick leave
- decrease in productivity affecting sales, ability to meet customer deadlines and possible loss of customers
These are just a few indications that something needs to change in order to develop a positive, supportive and safe working environment - not to mention - getting your productivity (and sales) back on track to improve your bottom line.
Talk to us today about how we can assist you in creating a working environment that you and your employees will find engaging and will get your bottom line back on track.
