The COVID-19 pandemic pushed employee health and well-being to the front of the Smarter Technologies business agenda. We looked to play a vital role in protecting our employees from the risk of infection by implementing stringent public health measures and supporting the need to work from home, pivoting our office structure to put employee health and well-being first. Throughout this time, we have taken additional measures in response to COVID-19, such as providing support directly to individual employees’ needs and concerns, ensuring that individuals have a safe space to raise any mental or physical health issues, and by catering to home office requirements. As we continue through the pandemic and its many phases, we remain malleable to the changes that come from putting our employees first.
