You could run a restaurant business, a real estate business, or any other type of business. One thing will always be an issue: lateness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Employees can\u2019t keep turning up late every morning or when they\u2019re due to work a shift. It can ruin productivity and lead to a whole host of administrative problems. If you\u2019re struggling with tardiness in your business, here are three possible tactics to help manage it:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Flexible Work Schedules<\/span><\/h2>\n

Instead of incorporating strict work schedules, why don\u2019t you take a more flexible approach? Many companies are trying this after the pandemic showed them that working from home was more than viable. Employees can either permanently work from home, or chose to work there for a few days a week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a smart idea to tackle tardiness as people can stay at home on days when traffic is really bad or a busy morning schedule makes them late for work. Of course, this doesn\u2019t work for every business. If you <\/span>run a restaurant business<\/span><\/a>, you can\u2019t get people to work from home. That\u2019s fine, you\u2019ll just have to consider one of the other two ideas instead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Time Tracking Apps<\/span><\/h2>\n

Sometimes, people are late to work because there\u2019s no real structure in place to stop them from being late. This can easily be reworked by using time tracking software such as My Hours<\/a>. It\u2019s very popular with staffing agencies as they use <\/span>agency tracking<\/span><\/a> software to keep track of all the employees they provide. You can take a similar approach, offering an app for all employees to download.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Every day, they have to open the app and clock in when they start their shift. It encourages them to be on time as they literally have to make a note of when they start. It\u2019s no longer possible for employees to sneak into work late and claim that they were on time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Meetings<\/span><\/h2>\n

The third tactic to combat tardiness is to have meetings with your employees. If everyone is late in the morning, you need to <\/span>have a discussion with your staff<\/span><\/a>. Figure out why they\u2019re late – are you asking too much about getting them in the office at 9 am? Is traffic always an issue? Do they have childcare concerns? You might uncover some common themes that help you come up with a solution. For instance, if the morning traffic is an issue, you could push back your start time to accommodate this and then maybe leave half an hour later in the evening.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The same should be done if individuals are late, but the rest of the workplace isn\u2019t. Pull these people aside for a private one-on-one meeting. Ask if they\u2019re having trouble getting to work on time. If they have genuine concerns, work with them to make life easier. They\u2019ll be able to make it on time with less stress in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tardiness can affect your bottom line, so it shouldn\u2019t be ignored. If someone is late by 10 minutes every day, they\u2019re losing 50 minutes of work time each week! Who knows what could\u2019ve been accomplished with this extra time!? Implement these tactics in your workplace to combat lateness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
