Improving deskless worker communication is something that many companies still struggle with. These employees do not sit behind a desk and often can’t access traditional communication channels. Yet reaching this group of employees has never been more important for a company’s success.

What is a Deskless Worker?

80% of the global workforce is made up of deskless workers. Deskless workers are employees who do not sit behind a desk for their job. 

Often, these employees are part-time and hourly, don’t have a company email address, and certainly don’t have easy access to their company’s Intranet. They’re healthcare professionals, assembly line workers, hotel staff, miners, truck drivers, restaurant servers, and cashiers. 

Challenges of Communicating With Deskless Workers

As a result of deskless employees not sitting at a desk or using a computer for their work, they often do not receive equitable internal communication and support.

This population is often left to fend for themselves and rely heavily on their frontline manager, without communication or engagement from the companies they work for. And they are burning out, quitting in record numbers, and demanding change.

Our primer on communicating with deskless workers covers on these comms challenges in depth and reviews ways that we can alter our internal communications strategies to more effectively reach this critical audience.
