This is no different when it comes to ensuring that your team is physically, mentally and financially well.\n\nWhile many of us are now equipped with our remote working set-up, it&#8217;s time we shine a spotlight back on how to support remote employee wellbeing. At the end of the day, employers have a duty of care, and that&#8217;s to provide a supportive and <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/working-from-home-whs-checklist\/\">safe work environment<\/a> &#8211; even if it&#8217;s a virtual one.\n\n<strong><em>But how do you know you know how your team is really feeling?<\/em><\/strong> Managing remote employees is a whole new ballgame compared to the office.\n\nIt involves using different strategies and looking out for specific social cues on video calls. When we&#8217;re face to face, you can sense when a co-worker is upset or stressed, however online, it&#8217;s a lot more difficult to recognise these signs.\n<h2 id=\"key-points\">Key points:<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Understanding and supporting remote employees&#8217; wellbeing is crucial for engagement, productivity, and retaining talent.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Employees who feel supported in their wellbeing are more engaged; conversely, neglect can lead to burnout and feelings of isolation.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Virtual environments make it harder for employers to recognise signs of distress in employees than in-person interactions.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Challenges of remote work include feelings of isolation, difficulties in spontaneous communication, and poor work-life balance.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Employers can support remote employee wellbeing by focusing on their emotional health, work-life balance, regular communication and professional growth pathways.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Benchmark employee happiness through anonymous engagement surveys and educate managers on the potential signs of struggling remote employees.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"do-employees-want-to-work-remotely\">Do employees want to work remotely?<\/h2>\nEarlier this year, we conducted our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/remote-work-report\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">own research<\/a> to find the attitudes towards remote working. While we knew the feelings of our own team first-hand, our predictions were deemed true for other remote workers around Malaysia.\n\n<strong><em>The most significant finding?<\/em><\/strong> People are enjoying the flexibility associated with <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/remote-working-guide\/\">working from home<\/a>; however, missing their co-workers and daily interactions, causing their mental wellbeing to take a dip.\n\nWith these findings front of mind and as many of us continue to work from home, managing the wellbeing of remote teams has never been more important.\n\nRead on as we share the rules of remote employee engagement and how to keep your team feeling motivated, inspired and at the top of their game \u2013 regardless of where in the world they\u2019re working from.\n<h2 id=\"what-is-remote-work\">What is remote work?<\/h2>\nA remote employee can be a part of a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/distributed-workforce-playbook\/\">distributed workforce<\/a> or team that is not confined to working in one central office location. It allows employees to work flexibly while being located away from each other \u2013 whether interstate, overseas, at home, in a local coffee shop, a co-working space, or in the head office.\n\nThe main benefit of employees working remotely is it empowers employees to choose where they work best. In recent years, many businesses and employees have become accustomed to working from home, and for many \u2013 the benefits have been obvious.\n\nNow, the question everyone is asking is how can you create a workforce that blends the best of both worlds whilst keeping employee engagement levels of a remote workforce at an all-time high?\n\nFirst, we need to understand why.\n<h2 id=\"why-is-remote-employee-mental-health-important\">Why is remote employee mental health important?<\/h2>\nEmployee wellbeing for a distributed team may look a little different compared to that of an entirely office-based team. When your team feels their wellbeing is supported, they\u2019ll be more likely to remain engaged with the company.\n\nHowever, an employee\u2019s wellbeing and mental health can easily take a dive if they\u2019re working remotely and feel the effects of burnout and isolation. That\u2019s why it\u2019s never been more important to support your team and prioritise their wellbeing.\n\nNot to mention that 89% of employees at companies that support wellbeing initiatives are more likely to recommend their company as a great place to work.\n<h2 id=\"what-are-the-challenges-of-remote-work\">What are the challenges of remote work?<\/h2>\nAs many benefits that remote working brings, and we believe it\u2019s far more life-friendly overall than <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/the-evolution-of-the-office\/\">traditional models<\/a>, it does present many real challenges. Without seeing your team in person, we can <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/overcome-challenges-hybrid-workforce\/\">miss the subtle dynamics<\/a> that help us be perceptive leaders.\n\nRemote working, for all its benefits, does not come naturally to everyone. What\u2019s worse, you may not discover that your remote employee is struggling before they disengage or look to alternative employment.\n<h3 id=\"effective-communication\">Effective communication<\/h3>\nWhen we were in the office, it was easy to get a sense of <em>vibe<\/em>. You could pop over to your colleague\u2019s desk, meet someone in the lunchroom or gather for a chat around the coffee machine. It was easy to interact socially, convey information quickly and easily get a lay of the land.\n\nFor remote employees, this is reduced to text and video on a screen. While remote work has made it easier for us to avoid distractions, it\u2019s also made spontaneous communication far more challenging.\n<h3 id=\"remoteliness\">Remoteliness<\/h3>\nRemoteliness is &#8211; you guessed it &#8211; a feeling of loneliness experienced when working remotely and social isolation. In the absence of the bustle of the office, workers can begin to feel isolated and disconnected from their colleagues and organisation.\n\nLike regular loneliness, remoteliness is a very subjective feeling depending on the individual. Some people may be able to spend long amounts of personal time alone and never feel a sense of remoteliness. For others, it may appear soon after they enter a remote work environment.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/stay-connected-virtually-with-coworkers\/\">How to stay connected with virtual coworkers<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h3 id=\"healthy-work-life-balance\">Healthy work-life balance<\/h3>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/work-life-balance-while-working-from-home\/\">Work-life balance<\/a> is a paradox of the remote working environment. Without the commute and time spent in the office, remote workers get much more time back in their day. But, they also integrate their working life fully into their home spaces.\n\nWhen your laptop is in the same room as your couch, what\u2019s stopping you from picking it up and flicking through emails?\n\nUnlimited access to <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/remote-working-software\/\">work tools<\/a> can make it all-too-easy for many employees to log on after work hours and be contacted 24\/7 outside working hours. Before they know it, employees feel overwhelmed and overworked.\n<h3 id=\"disengagement\">Disengagement<\/h3>\nOur move to remote work has not happened in a vacuum. We\u2019ve made the switch during an uncertain and chaotic time, which has negatively affected many employees and their family members.\n\nThe stress of uncertainty is difficult to spot and remedy in a remote environment. Such anxiety can cause disengagement, a lack of focus, overwhelming fatigue and a drop in interest.\n<h2 id=\"how-to-support-remote-employee-wellbeing\">How to support remote employee wellbeing<\/h2>\n<h3 id=\"\"><\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"1-use-surveys-and-happiness-scores\">1.

Simple, right?\n\nWith remote working, it can be easy to forget to check in with your team. Not to mention that it&#8217;s more difficult to pick up on social cues over a video camera.\n\n<strong>Hint<\/strong>: Ask your team to have their video cameras on during meetings.\n\nIf you notice that someone is particularly quiet or acting out of character, send them a direct message or give them a call after to check in on them.\n\nBy sending around a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/employee-surveys\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">survey or asking your team to rate their happiness score<\/a>, you can gain great insights into how everyone is really feeling.

Lead by example<\/h3>\nWhen it comes to supporting employee wellbeing, it&#8217;s crucial for your management team to lead by example. It&#8217;s all well and good to say that you support your team&#8217;s wellbeing, but you need to have your leadership team walk the talk.\n\n<strong><em>So what exactly does this mean?<\/em><\/strong> It means that you encourage work\/life balance. It means that you encourage flexibility, and it means that you don&#8217;t expect replies to emails or messages outside of work hours. It&#8217;s allowing your leadership team to be transparent and communicate when they&#8217;re taking their kids to swim practice or to ducking out for a gym session.\n\nWhen your team sees that this is the culture within your organisation, they&#8217;ll feel comfortable doing the same. It all comes down to communication and creating an open and honest line of communication in your virtual office.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/develop-trust-remote-working\/\">How to build trust with remote colleagues<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h2 id=\"what-can-managers-do-to-support-remote-employees\">What can managers do to support remote employees?<\/h2>\nWhen you have a distributed team, communication is a top priority.

Have the right tools to support internal communications<\/h3>\nBasic requirements will see you use emails to communicate with external stakeholders and an instant messaging tool like Slack to communicate internally.

Before you jump in, you should outline what meetings you want to have, and once you&#8217;ve decided &#8211; it&#8217;s time to commit.\n\nBy holding regular meetings, your team will be across everything they need to know. During All-Hands meetings (which everyone in the business attends), you should encourage members of your leadership team to talk through any exciting updates, upcoming events or milestones.\n\nThis is a chance for them to lead by example and can really help build your team up to create an inspired workforce. Think of it as an opportunity to keep your team feeling inspired about your company&#8217;s mission.\n\nWhether it&#8217;s daily team WIPs (work-in-progress meetings) to identify any roadblocks and updates, weekly 1:1s with your direct reports, or fortnightly All-Hands meetings, the ball is in your court when it comes to finding what works best for your team.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/the-remote-first-workplace-playbook\/\">How to create an effective remote first workplace<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h3 id=\"8-replicate-in-office-culture-for-those-working-remotely\">8.

But with a distributed workforce, it&#8217;s a whole new ball game.\n\nDeveloping a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/remote-company-culture\/\">positive distributed workplace culture<\/a> requires work. You need to set expectations for both on-site and remote workers to make sure that values and policies align.\n\nWhen it comes to creating a positive culture in a remote-first workplace, you need to make sure all activities are done virtually &#8211; and if that isn&#8217;t possible, provide remote employees with an opportunity to attend in person.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/distributed-workforce-companies\/\">Companies who have embraced remote working<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h3 id=\"9-encourage-career-development-opportunities\">9.

Leaders should always have their cameras on and be visually engaging, setting an example for good <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/communication-cadence-distributed-team\/\">remote communication etiquette<\/a>. You may even wish to make a general request at the start of a Zoom call for all employees to have their cameras on.\n<h3 id=\"a-drop-in-productivity\">A drop in productivity<\/h3>\nIf your employee is missing deadlines, dragging out their tasks and not meeting their role requirements, this is a big red flag. They could be <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/remote-work-rut\/\">feeling demotivated<\/a> by the lack of an office environment, losing interest in their role or struggling to prioritise.\n\n<strong>How to tackle it<\/strong>: Does your team have a task management system in place? How about clearly defined goals articulated through a step-based process like <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/okrs-guide\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Objectives and Key Results<\/a> (OKRs)? Using these tools can help increase transparency around productivity and give you and your team members a clear indication of deadlines, workload and priorities.\n\nUsing these tools can increase visibility around productivity and help you and your employee discuss their workload and priorities. A confidential conversation might reveal that their workload is too much, they are fielding too many requests from other sides of the business, or there is a knowledge gap which is keeping them from completing their tasks.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/goal-setting-remote-teams-okrs\/\">Establishing goals for remote teams using OKRs<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h3 id=\"resistance-to-opportunities\">Resistance to opportunities<\/h3>\nWhen we feel disconnected from our work, we lose interest in growing or developing within our roles.\n\nIf your team member has turned down opportunities for; learning or coaching, team-building days and events, celebrations, rewards, recognition or career progression &#8211; it\u2019s likely that all is not well.\n\n<strong>How to tackle it: <\/strong>Assign your employee the task of sourcing their own development opportunity. This could be enrolling in a short course, finding a mentorship or attending an event that they\u2019ve always wanted to be a part of. Show that you want to invest in them; however they choose to learn.\n\nEmpowering them will not only support remote employees in re-engaging with career development but gaining new knowledge could help them rediscover why they were interested in their role in the first place.\n<h3 id=\"theyre-online-constantly-or-not-at-all\">They\u2019re online constantly, or not at all<\/h3>\nBeing situated at either end of this spectrum is a red flag.\n\nUnless you have an <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/flexible-working-policy-template\/\">asynchronous working agreement<\/a>, spotting your employee online at all hours of the day is a sign that their work-life balance is taking a hit. There\u2019s very little pay-off for this style of working. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/wellness-at-work-report\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">research<\/a> shows that employees who felt they lacked work-life balance were a whopping 174% more likely to experience low productivity.\n\nTo the other extreme, frequently being offline is another obvious warning sign that your employee may be struggling to stay present. While you don\u2019t want to establish a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/case-against-employee-monitoring-software\/\">surveillance culture<\/a> &#8211; everyone is going to be offline sometimes throughout the day for well-deserved breaks and general interruptions &#8211; a constant inactive status might be cause for concern.\n\n<strong>How to tackle it:<\/strong> We recommend tackling this one head-on during your 1:1 meeting. In the case of your team member always being offline, have a gentle check-in to say you\u2019ve noticed they\u2019re offline during the day and offer assistance to get them back on track.\n\nIf they\u2019re always online, offer to help them prioritise their workload or delegate tasks to others. Discuss strategies about setting up their workspace or devices so that they\u2019re not tempted to log on at all hours of the day. Leaders should also set an example; don\u2019t reward working overtime or outside hours and make sure that you are taking adequate time to rest.\n<h2 id=\"the-wrap-up\">The wrap up<\/h2>\nAs we continue to see a shift to remote working, employee wellbeing has never been more important.
