How Remote Staffing Providers Can Add Business Value
Remote Work Is The New Normal
This article aims to discuss how remote staffing providers can add business value.
According to a study by Owl labs, globally, 16% of companies are fully remote.
Global talent network Andela surveyed 100 CTOs and VPs of Engineering from a combination of high-growth startups (above 200 employees) and large enterprises.Its Remote Engineering survey found that prior to Covid, 13% of engineering teams were fully remote. As a result of the pandemic, that number has increased to 74%.
The concept of remote staffing leverages the value of remote work. Staffing providers were born out of the need to aid companies in finding the right people for the right roles. Staffing providers also provide support in hiring and managing remote staff.
Here are some ways remote staffing providers add value to your business:
When considering remote staffing, it is important to determine the following and ask these key questions:
- Who do I need to hire?
- What kind of team do I want?
- What do I want them to be good at?
Employee engagement
Your remote staffing provider can implement and nurture trust-based relationships and develop a unique organizational culture for your remote staff. Positive employee engagement and organizational culture play a big role in boosting employee morale, increased productivity, and performance.
Monitoring
In remote staffing, your provider must be capable of ensuring client and internal reports that are generated accurately (weekly, monthly, and quarterly, depending on the clients’ preference) and on time. Remote staff can produce weekly utilization reports, employee productivity reports, forecast reports based on historical data, pivot tables, pivot charts and business intelligence reports such as comprehensive operational dashboard reports.
For targeted process improvement, businesses should also have clearly defined set of Management Metrics. This will be the basis of quantifiable measures on the performance of your offshore staff. Connext Global Solutions is a staffing solutions provider that uses three standard metrics to track employee performance:
Productivity: Measured based on desired output by client
Utilization: Measured on a weekly basis, based on 40-hour work week
Quality: Measure of errors made versus number of tasks completed
