More than one-third of companies lack the right technology to effectively communicate, engage, and retain their frontline employees
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., March 30, 2023 – Simpplr, the leading AI-powered employee experience platform, announced the results of their extensive 2023 Frontline Worker Survey conducted with 1,500 HR executives of organizations in which more than 20% of their workforce comprises frontline employees.
The survey revealed that more than 30% of companies lack the technology to adequately engage frontline employees and that 54% of companies recognize that failing to help frontline employees stay connected and engaged is costing them productivity. They also find a technology gap is making it more difficult to retain (37% of respondents) and recruit (38%) talent.
“Frontline employees make up 80% of the global workforce, but many organizations lack the technology and communication channels to keep them engaged and connected to the rest of the organization,” said Paige Leidig, Simpplr’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Simpplr is keenly aware of this gap, and it’s the reason we created a mobile-first intranet that can provide companies with the right communication channels to elevate their employee experience and connect with employees in a seamless way wherever and however they work.”
