The range and impact of coronavirus spread has reached dimensions that seemed unthinkable just a few weeks ago. Virtually every person and every organization is busy assessing the impact on their own areas.

What the coronavirus means for your recruitment from our point of view, you can read here ...

 

Where will the Coronavirus journey go?

Unfortunately we cannot answer this question because we do not know the exact answer ourselves. We can only try to assess the consequences for our services as an RPO Recruitment Process Outsourcing partner and to consider how we can support you, our clients and partners.

Assumptions on the actual situation

  • The crisis lasts longer, operating facilities and offices are temporarily closed. Employees are sent to home offices.
  • Only parts of the operational processes can be processed from the home office. Access to operational data resources is restricted.
  • Processes in the HR department, including recruitment, stall or delay considerably. Coordination within the team becomes difficult.
  • The search for suitable employees is still a strategically important task that should and must be pursued.

In most companies and organisations, the degree of organisation is far from being at a level that ensures that the physical interaction between employees is not restricted to the result. A full-time attendance was always a lived practice.

What can be done?

Outsourcing is the key word here. If your own company cannot fulfil its recruitment tasks or can only fulfil them partially, you need an HR partner who can ensure that you achieve your goals and map the processes: To always attract and retain the best employees for one's own company and thus to secure the company's development in the long term. Especially in times like these, this includes gaining temporary staff to fill gaps in the short term and secure the operational process.

How can FEL assist you?
