It can be frustrating dealing with a team that struggles to meet deadlines, but handling a team starts with realizing you have control over how productive your team becomes in the long run.

What is productivity?

The term productive is subjective to your business: what business 'A' terms as a productive workforce may be mediocre to business 'B'. However, a broadly acclaimed definition of employee productivity is when your team uses their work time judiciously and gets more results in less time.

Strategies to improve your team`s productivity.

To get the most out of every member of the team, you need to get involved deliberately and we have listed a couple of tips to get you started.

Have a wellness program:

Mental health is crucial to your team`s overall performance and it goes without saying; a stable mind gets the job done. Put a program in place that will assist your employees mentally: it could be a hangout at the beach or anything that relieves stress. Many of your workers may not take their mental health seriously, so initiatives like these are great.

Conduct a risk assessment:

The safety of your employees should come first. Ensure that you adhere to health and safety guidelines as stipulated by the authorities. You can start with a simple DSE training or DSE risk assessment for your computer-based workers.

Get them comfortable:

Get your team to ease into their tasks by motivating them and making them see their relevance in every business operation.

Have the right equipment and facilities in place to aid their work. Take your time to invest in an ergonomic workstation assessment to ascertain the level of comfort that your employees enjoy and improve where necessary.
