The strategy aims to achieve an average adherence and attendance rate of 98% by deploying three core approaches: enhancing communication, implementing incentives and recognition, and boosting workplace engagement.
For enhancing communication, the plan includes actions like sending reminders via email and SMS, hosting monthly webinars, and setting up a FAQ section on the company intranet to ensure that attendance guidelines are clear. This would, for example, prevent employees from missing important updates and adhering to set guidelines.
Incentives and recognition include introducing a reward system for perfect attendance, publishing a leaderboard, and providing additional paid time off. This could, for instance, motivate employees to improve their attendance rates to receive rewards such as monthly prizes or being inducted into an 'Attendance Hall of Fame.’
To enhance workplace engagement, the strategy involves conducting employee satisfaction surveys, organizing team-building activities, and offering mental health support. An example of this could be conducting yoga sessions or facilitating mentoring programs, which can lead to improved mental well-being and, subsequently, better attendance.
