Screening staff firms in the UK? Assess how each candidate’s work arrangement should be structured. Could it be a contract role to allow more flexibility than is possible with a fulltime hire? Consider structuring hires to minimize unemployment and outplacement costs in the present climate of uncertainty. Implement low-cost, minimal-effort, yet high-impact employee retention and mental health practices. Everyone knows we are in an unprecedented time and companies are making some things up as they go along.

Scared, resentful employees don’t often want to offer ideas.
When working in an office, your morning commute can help you wake up and feel ready to work by the time you get to your desk.
