By 2022, 31% of all workers worldwide will be working remotely, according to Gartner. Large corporations such as Twitter and Slack have already announced permanent work-from-home policies.
It is no secret that remote work is the way of the future, and it is here to stay. With this notion shaping the future of work, businesses must ensure that employee experience remains intact even when employees work remotely.
What’s the fuss with employee experience?
According to Mckinsey, 40% of workers globally say they might leave their jobs soon. Fostering a positive employee experience corresponds to better business performance for the company. However, it can be tricky to deal with when it comes to remote work.
Where the gap occurs
Companies often focus on bonuses, rewards, and well-being programs to maximize productivity and business outcomes. Instead, they can focus on employee satisfaction by ensuring they are paid on time.
Although additional benefits are welcome, they should not overshadow the importance of a strong payroll solution. Therefore, it is crucial to have a solution that improves the overall payday experience.

Are you still processing all your time and absence data manually? If yes, there is a risk of racking up fines and moving further away from the industry standards.
Manually updating time sheets is a cumbersome process that no employee would want to be ever entertained with. Automated time and attendance management solutions accurately record data and provide employees with information about their shifts and overtime payments.

Most helpdesk responses are standardized and may appear impersonal. Employees expect an answer that has been individually tailored with a thorough understanding of their context. When you fail to meet their expectations after making them wait, it directly impacts the employee experience.
