Thanks to SME Blogs for these reminders. While they meant "holidays" in the vacation sense- this info is solid at this time of year too. Whether your team will be shuffling religious holiday absences or vacation days... It's coming!
Top 5 Tips posts from the SME Blog are always full of hints and tips for small, home & micro business owners.
1. Don’t let it come as a shock to you when an
employee is off on holiday. If you are unaware of their coming absence
until the day they go away, there is most likely something wrong with
your system.
2. Remember that ... a lot of
your customers will also be away. Try to take the possible payment
slump into account when planning ahead.
3. Always make sure that there is someone who is
available who knows how (and is authorised) to perform specific tasks,
such as making payments to suppliers.
4. Ask staff if they mind handing over access to
their emails to someone else for the time they are away – this will help
avoid nasty surprises or annoying your clients by not responding.
5. Train staff to be flexible in their job roles so
that when someone goes away they can easily cover some of the work of
the person on holiday.
Thanks SME Blogs for the reminders!!!!
