How to improve employee engagement with your travelling workforce

Revenue might be the one thing that keeps a company’s doors open but its people are still its most valuable asset. Keeping your staff involved and engaged is key to a productive company and it’s easy to feel involved if all your staff are onsite, but road warriors or engineers or travelling team members can often feel left out, which can lead to low employee engagement levels. This ultimately ends up hurting the business in more ways than one: an actively disengaged team member can cost the company 34 percent of their salary every year, a Gallup study found. Identifying causes of poor employee engagement levels, implementing long-term fixes and leveraging the right digital platforms to do so is an art in itself.
