Today’s employers are caught in a balancing act between employee flexibility and compliance, empathy and efficiency, and worker expectations and budget realities. When this equilibrium is maintained, organizations experience significant benefits, including lower turnover, greater productivity, reduced risk, and higher performance. However, many employees feel their employer’s priorities are tipping out of balance and away from their best interests. Dayforce’s VP of Global Talent Acquisition, Steve Knox, will explore the employee perspective of how well organizations are navigating this balancing act and outline what employers can do to ensure the scales aren’t tipped too far in one direction. Using survey data from Dayforce’s Pulse of Talent report, Steve will explore the significance of creating employee social contracts and uncover three, key suggestions to strike an ideal balance between employers and employees: Activate potential, build trust, and enhance communication.
