<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n So, how do companies actually create effective and engaging internal communication? We asked HR professionals from several leading organizations for their best practice tips on how they reach and engage their workforce with their communications. Their responses conclude that to be effective, employee communication must be:<\/span><\/p>\n Let\u2019s look at what they had to say in more detail:<\/span><\/p>\n Ambea is one of the leading care companies in the Nordics. However, with multidisciplinary teams and a widespread workforce, reaching employees quickly and making them feel part of the same company had been a challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n Today, Ambea uses the communication engine<\/a> integrated into their benefits platform, Ambea For Me<\/em>. Understanding that one size does not fit all, the company uses multiple channels to reach its workforce. Using the platform’s communication tools, administrators are able to communicate with workers via e-mail, post messages inside the benefits platform, or send push notifications to employees’ smartphones thanks to the Benify app.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cMany of our employees are not based in front of a computer every day and have no work phone or work e-mail address. Therefore, we need more communication channels than the intranet because not everyone can access the content. With Benify’s communication tools, we can reach our employees on their mobile phones – in a platform that they’re already used to using to log in and see their payslips and enroll in benefits,\u201d says Filip Carlsson, Commu<\/span>nications and Marketing Project Manager, at Ambea.<\/span> Ensuring blue-collar workers are kept up to date with important information is a hurdle that many companies face. Like Ambea, leading German building materials and wood supplies company, BAUKING employs the use of an app<\/a> connected to their employee benefits platform, BAUKING4you, to reach and engage their workforce, which primarily consists of blue-collar workers.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cBAUKING4you allows us to reach all employees, even those who do not have a PC workstation, like those working in the warehouse or logistics,\u201d shares Marc-Oliver Windbacher, Divisional Manager of Human Resources Management at Bauking.<\/span><\/p>\n Using an employee app, Bauking communicates company news and updates and share videos and photos instantly with the entire workforce.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
