Employees in Europe, in particular, face considerable uncertainty. How can organizations make sure their employees are safe? That said, organizations need to prioritize employees who live or work in Ukraine or nearby regions and face a physical threat. Consider using third-party safety and evacuation services to extricate them. And, no matter the employees’ location, remind those struggling with mental and emotional health during these times of Employee Assistance Programs that could be of use.Managers are also overwhelmed.
Your role is to help managers support and empower those around them without overlooking their own health and safety. This means providing adequate training and support. Send messages that highlight manager-specific support systems and ideas for assisting their direct reports. Surge training material and resources to help managers find the right balance between being empathetic and understanding, without trying to take on the role of a mental-health counselor, which they are not trained to do.
