The impact of Coronavirus on businesses
As the COVID-19 pandemic evolves, businesses worldwide face an unprecedented challenge. From supply chain disruptions to employee shortages to decreased demand, companies struggle to stay afloat. The MAD-HR Coronavirus Hub explores the impact of Covid-19 on businesses and offers strategies for coping with the impact of the virus.
Business owners need to be aware of the changing landscape and be prepared to adapt as necessary. The Covid-19 pandemic has led to changes in employee engagement, and businesses need to be responsive to stay ahead. For example, early on in the pandemic, many businesses shifted quickly to allowing employees to work from home. Homeworking presented a new set of challenges that many business owners may not have foreseen. Moving forward, evolving issues like long covid and how to manage team members who have tested positive also need to be considered.
