There are so many concerns that businesses owners, managers and employees are stressed about constantly every day. And unfortunately, workplace violence has now become a majorly heightened concern for workers everywhere. We have especially seen these numbers jump during these post-pandemic conditions now that organizations are reopening their offices and requiring their employees to return in person.
Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic took over and businesses had to close their office doors, working from home has become the preferred method by many employees and employers alike. While working remotely is not a new concept, it has certainly evolved into a majorly heated debate among employers.
For company owners, it reduces the overhead costs of an office, copy machine, office equipment, and more. For employees, it takes away commute times and allows them to live where they would like to be, regardless of a company’s headquarters.
Consequently, there has been a significant increase of businesses with regularly teleworking staff. Businesses are progressively looking to outsource their HR and payroll necessities appropriately.

One of the many ways America is having to adjust the way they work has been the result of the Pandemic. Now that we are all a living experiment of making it through such a challenging time, HR professionals and employers realize the lasting impact of working from home.
Thrive Global interviewed Flex HR’s Senior Vice President, Dr. John Cascone, to talk about how we need to adjust for the future of work. He notes that “globalization is the greatest societal force that will impact the future of work for the remainder of the 21st century. The recent pandemic is evidence of how globalization affected the health of the world’s population. While the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic can be clearly seen on businesses, healthcare, job security and government, globalization also has had its impact on trade, consumer goods, industry, immigration, and social polarization all of which has and will continue to have an impact on our workforce.”
The whole world learned quickly they needed to adapt to the change in order to survive. Businesses shifted their operations and made changes to their policies and better prepared their workforce to adjust to these alterations.
