At AtomicNorth we believe an organization is built only as strong as its employees, which is why we undertook several initiatives towards ensuring the physical and mental welfare of our task force.
The novel coronavirus took the world by storm, with everyday activities, global movements and trade, and even national economies coming to a grinding halt. It would not be an understatement to say every land, country and continent suffered a profound impact on their socio-economic strata. Governments, national and international, united to fight the infection, and it is with that resilient spirit that we came up with an action plan to counter the spread of COVID-19 while maintaining employee relationships and restructured growth goals.
Maintaining productivity
In light of the fast spread, the global economic and physical lockdown hit small and mid-sized businesses the hardest. Month-long lockdowns sent orders, business uptimes and deliveries spinning.
Office sanitization
With initial reports of infection spread, we took fast and decisive steps towards maintaining a clean and sanitized working environment, with routine spraying and cleansing of common spaces like door handles, elevators, conference rooms and cafeterias.
Security for the workforce
We believe in delivering win-win-win solutions for our clients, where profits, client demands and employee welfare all take a front seat in our growth. During those uncertain times we took unified and informed decisions towards providing our task force with peace of mind regarding employment and monthly pay.
Staying pay cuts
After a thorough understanding of the ground-level situation, we took decisions towards ensuring financial security for our workforce, deciding not to dish out pay cuts to any of our valued members. Forging unity amongst us while battling through trying times is a core belief here.
Brewing motivation
We understood the anxiety brewing during those uncertain times, which is why we enabled an easy platform for employees to reach out, by holding regular HR sessions to motivate our task force and depressurize stress levels while upholding general productivity.
Retaining non-essential workers
After careful deliberation, we undertook critical action plans to show that we care. Retaining even our non-essential workers, enabling them to build their livelihoods during an uncertain period, highlights the essence of our employee relationships.
Doing our part, bit by bit
It is during hard times that resilience and unity are tested, yet we take on each challenge as an opportunity for personal and business growth. Looking out for all our employees, dissolving income worries and setting up a healthy and stress-free work-from-home network were some of the considerate steps we took towards flattening the curve.
