Summer Resources

Summer Resources – We Can Help!

As the warmer months and holidays are upon us, business leaders and employers may begin worrying about how to keep their workforce operating efficiently during this time.  

Most employees take a significant part of their annual leave during the summer months. However, the work is still there, and clients expect a continuation of services. 

It is important for businesses to ensure staff absences are managed properly to prevent a drop in service levels and prevent important tasks from being missed. Most businesses are therefore faced with the challenge of negotiating their team’s summer holidays whilst ensuring the minimum amount of disruption 

Our Virtual Assistants can work as an extension of your in-house teams. We offer bespoke, cost-effective solutions to meet clients’ unique requirements.   

Are you prepared for summer? 

A key factor is capacity planning to ensure that you have sufficient resources for holiday cover. Low capacity is a major problem that can cause increased stress levels for employees, so make sure that existing employees do not need to work excessive hours to cover for their colleague’s annual leave. 

Now is the time to start planning your team capacity. Consider the current workload and capacity and the impact that staff holidays will have on capacity levels. Make sure to include time spent on day-to-day administration, ad-hoc requests, recurring meetings, coffee runs, and unplanned events, and make sure to separate out the hours you spend on different projects. 

Once you have assessed your capacity requirements and identified any shortfall, it is time to consider how to solve any issues.  

The solution to solve your resourcing and capacity issues this summer 

Re-allocating team members can work, and some members of the team may be willing to step in to cover a role on a temporary basis. However, it could also increase stress levels and create gaps in the capacity elsewhere.

A virtual assistant can provide additional support with this summer to ensure you maintain a high level of staff morale and retention rates. In general, a virtual assistant can perform most tasks that a regular employee can do. We can often bring new ideas and energy into a business. Staff will come back from their breaks to pick up on the work going forward without first having to sort through a backlog of tasks that have been waiting for their return. 

Virteffic can tailor the services to suit your needs. You choose how much work you want to delegate and when, and you can stop using the services at any time. We can take care of virtually anything. 

In conclusion, the team at Virteffic can provide relief at this busy time of year.
