Magenta Associates has created a guide to communicating with furloughed employees.
Following the launch of the UK Government’s Job Retention Scheme, thousands of employers across the country are taking advantage of the opportunity to place some of their people – including a large chunk of front-line facilities workers, on temporary leave with the Government funding a proportion of their salary.
With the built environment sector massively impacted by the Covid-19 outbreak, the Magenta team has put together a short guide to communicating with furloughed teams.
It offers top tips and practical advice on what you should – and shouldn’t – do as an employer while also ensuring your furloughed teams are kept engaged and motivated.
