One of the many benefits of Truvelop is the messaging our Customer Success team sends to leaders and managers each month. Through Truvelop Tips, we share best practices, proactive recommendations, and quicks tips with end users on various topics. Here is an excerpt from the most recent Truvelop Tip: Make a Mid-Year Check-In Meaningful.
Building services and maintenance workers represent a large portion of our workforce but are often the most overlooked and underappreciated. It’s no secret that increased pressure, longer hours and general uncertainty in the economy are leading to burnout. In fact, surveys have shown that 42% of the global workforce is burnt out, representing a 2% rise over the last quarter.
At Truvelop, we know that change isn’t just manager-driven. Employees have the ability to drive their own experience and create an environment that inspires growth and engagement. That’s why Truvelop sends out monthly Truvelop Tips directly to the employees of each of our clients. Here’s an excerpt from June’s Employee Truvelop Tip: Reflect to Check-In.
Mid-year check-ins are a pivotal opportunity for HR leaders to align employee performance with organizational goals, foster employee development, and address any challenges that may have emerged in the first half of the year. These check-ins, when conducted effectively, can drive engagement, improve productivity, and support retention.
One of the many ways that Truvelop supports our customers is by offering bi-monthly user community Lunch and Learns. Each L&L has it’s own theme that looks at current employee performance trends, how it may be affecting a Manager’s experience, and what Managers can be doing to grow and develop as leaders for their teams.
The construction industry has always dealt with labor shortages. Companies have always struggled with the seasonal nature of jobs and with replacing older, skilled laborers with younger workers. The industry will, however, start facing a larger problem. As of 2022, the construction industry needed to fill 650,000 jobs just to keep up with the backlog. On top of that, less than 20% of Gen Z said they would even entertain a job in construction. If the construction industry hopes to fill the skilled and unskilled labor gap, then they will need to rethink what construction jobs look like and how they handle employees.
Retaining top talent is more critical than ever. While annual performance reviews have been the traditional method for evaluating employee performance, mid-year check-ins are emerging as a powerful tool for enhancing employee satisfaction and retention. These more frequent touchpoints offer many benefits that can lead to a more engaged, motivated, and loyal workforce. Here’s why mid-year check-ins are essential for retaining your best employees.
