Communicating With Shift Workers
Shift Communications Into Top Gear
Don’t Risk Out Of Sight Becoming Out Of Mind
Shift workers are an integral part of many workplaces, but can often be overlooked. The nature of their roles mean that shift staff often feel like they lack information and opportunities.
They have less access to knowledgeable day-based staff members. They can also experience bottlenecks because decisions need to be run past management and other departments that only work during the day.

This can have a negative effect on shift worker productivity and lead to disengagement and isolation. To address these pain points before they escalate requires a different approach to internal communication. One that speaks to shift workers the way they want to hear.
