Workplaces will require thoughtful changes in the way they set up and operate to help keep employees safe. At the same time, employees will have new expectations on the way they work and how they choose to do so. Those who can work from home will likely want to maintain that flexibility when offices open back up, as they\u2019ve seen the benefits of doing so for the last few months already. Technology like Teams will make it easy for co-workers to collaborate and work from anywhere, whether they decide to return to the workplace or continue working remotely.<\/p>\n<p>By taking a people-first approach to returning to the workplace, organisations will drive better engagement from their employees in demonstrating that they are putting employee safety and wellbeing above all else.<\/p>\n<h2>Using tech to empower employee safety<\/h2>\n<p>Our workspaces need to be optimised for social distance, as well as resilience. Using technology to optimise the workforce is the best way to make it easy for them to do their best work and to create workplaces where employees feel safe and protected.<\/p>\n<p>Our partners have been instrumental in helping organisations ensure an efficient return to work, while prioritising employee safety. Transparity is a great example of this as they\u2019ve been at the forefront of helping customers respond to COVID-19, from helping transition to remote working at the start, to enabling a safe return to work as we begin to adjust to the new normal. At a recent hackathon, they created a no\/low code app via Power Apps that helps improve employee health and wellbeing. Because the app is quick to build, you can implement it quickly across your factories and offices and it can also be customised to suit specific business needs and requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Here are three ways you can use Transparity\u2019s PowerApp to keep your employees safe and healthy when planning the return to work:<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium webp-format alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Thermal-imagery-300x193.webp\" alt=\"Transparity's app showing thermal imagery in use to help for safe return to work.\" width=\"300\" height=\"193\" data-orig-srcset=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Thermal-imagery-300x193.png 300w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Thermal-imagery-330x212.png 330w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Thermal-imagery-400x257.png 400w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Thermal-imagery.png 769w\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Thermal-imagery-300x193.png\" \/>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Track symptoms with thermal imagery<\/h3>\n<p>Part of the \u2018new normal\u2019 is looking at your workplaces and how they can be adapted to social distancing, such as implementing clear guidance on social distancing in workplaces. Provide PPE, such as gloves, face shields, masks as well as hand sanitiser and handwashing stations. This will help show employees that their health is the priority when they return.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at some easy technological solutions too. For COVID-19, body temperature is a key indicator of infection. By placing thermal cameras at entrances, you can use Transparity\u2019s app to track employee\u2019s temperatures easily. If an employee has a higher than average temperature, they are sent additional information via the app. The employee\u2019s line manager is also notified; and where needed, additional measures can be put in place.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium webp-format alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/self-assessment-300x195.webp\" alt=\"Employees can feel confident safely returning to work with an app that tracks symptoms.\" width=\"300\" height=\"195\" data-orig-srcset=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/self-assessment-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/self-assessment-330x214.png 330w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/self-assessment-400x260.png 400w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/self-assessment.png 766w\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/self-assessment-300x195.png\" \/>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Identify risks through proactive monitoring<\/h3>\n<p>Part of empowering employees is to ensure their voices are heard. This can be as simple as asking employees to complete a self-assessment on a weekly basis. This proactive monitoring is one that enables an organisation to identify employees who may present with symptoms in the future.<\/p>\n<h3>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Maintain clear communication<\/h3>\n<p>The best way to keep employees engaged is to keep lines of communication open, listening, and implementing feedback, especially through times of change.<\/p>\n<p>Regular virtual meetings, Q&amp;As and even quick email messages are great ways to give updates, information, and connect with the workforce. For quick information, an app with Microsoft Power Virtual Agent built in lets users ask commonly asked questions and receive this information in real-time. It can link out to relevant company information and escalate to a team if an answer can\u2019t be found.<\/p>\n<h2>Creating an employee-centric culture<\/h2>\n<p>By implementing technology that supports a safe return to work, manufacturers will show their employees that they\u2019re leading people-first rather than profit-first. This will create a workforce of supportive, engaged employees who are confident to return to work in their best way.<\/p>\n<h2>Find out more<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/info.microsoft.com\/ww-landing-A-Year-of-Change-Digital-Transformation-Trends-in-2020.html?lcid=EN-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A Year of Change: Digital Transformation Trends in 2020 e-book<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clouddamcdnprodep.azureedge.net\/gdc\/gdcwGE6aQ\/original\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Building your first business app <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clouddamcdnprodep.azureedge.net\/gdc\/gdc4bjbwJ\/original\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The total economic impact of Power Apps<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-gb\/industry\/blog\/manufacturing\/2020\/06\/18\/a-roadmap-for-recovery-manufacturing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A roadmap to recovery: How manufacturers can return to work safely<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>About the author<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Frichard-king-097369114%2F&amp;data=02%7C01%7Ct-emoxle%40microsoft.com%7Ce38594a1ded64adf058608d811426544%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637278324154414345&amp;sdata=WzGEwqhtlBPJf7eQtltAuXAyRwcUJmFN3xtRTI3aDzE%3D&amp;reserved=0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail webp-format alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King-150x150.webp\" alt=\"Photo of smiling man, Richard King\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-orig-srcset=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King-330x330.jpg 330w, https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King.jpg 400w\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2020\/06\/Richard-King-150x150.jpg\" \/>Richard<\/a>\u00a0is responsible for leading Microsoft\u2019s approach into the UK Manufacturing industry.<\/p>\n<p>Richard joined Microsoft 14 years ago, where he has held various leadership roles across the business, the most recent of which is to establish and drive Microsoft\u2019s strategy into the UK Industrial sector.
