Worker Committees
Employee engagement is one of the best ways to reinvigorate your workforce and improve retention. The Industrial Commons helps companies better engage their workforce by building a powerful team of your best front-line employees and middle managers. We then accompany this team in working with Senior Management to identify the challenges your organization is facing, and help bring front-line solutions to solve the problems. Below are some of the areas Worker Committees have been helpful in addressing:
Quality and efficiency improvement
Workplace culture
Employee Surveys and polls
New Employee Onboarding and Mentoring
In bringing every perspective to the table, Worker Committees help bring new ways of thinking in order to tackle tough or entrenched issues. And by working with their colleagues on the frontline, they can help engage fellow employees in ways that may not be possible through senior leadership initiatives.
“Since working with The Industrial Commons to implement Worker Committees, we have reduced turnover by 25%, which amounts to a total of $75,000 in annual savings.”
—Debbie Sigmon, Senior Vice President of Human Resources and Safety at Meridian Specialty Yarn Group, Inc.
Future of Work Webinar
The pandemic changed the way we do work, probably forever. But even before the pandemic, newer generations of workers were having different expectations from what they wanted from work. As the labor market remains tight, attraction and retention of the next generation of workers is the key to your businesses success.
