The Problems & The Solutions
The Problem Today
The traditional in-house HR team is increasingly proving to be insufficient for the evolving demands of fully remote workforces. Problems like cost inefficiency, lack of specialized HR expertise, and challenges in scalability are commonplace. According to a PwC survey, 78% of CEOs agree that remote work is here to stay, meaning the issues in HR aren’t going away anytime soon. Add the complication of managing a team across different time zones, and it’s clear that a new approach is needed.
Based on the PwC survey indicating that 78% of CEOs agree remote work is here to stay, the following problems in human resources management for remote workforces are evident:
Access to Global Talent Pool
While remote work allows access to global talent, the process of hiring and onboarding can be complex due to differing regulations and norms.
Costs
In-house HR can be expensive, with costs not only including salaries but also benefits, office space, and training.
Hiring Efficiency
Traditional hiring cycles are long and often inefficient, leading to delays in getting new projects off the ground.
Communication
Language and cultural barriers can exist when team members are spread across various countries.
Discipline and Productivity
Maintaining a disciplined remote work environment is often challenging, impacting productivity negatively.
Collaboration Across Time Zones
Working across different time zones can lead to collaboration issues, affecting deadlines and workflow.
Risk of Bad Hires
Remote hiring increases the chances of misjudging a candidate’s capabilities based on their resume alone.
Management Challenges
Remote teams often require different management skills, including the ability to handle team collaboration and deliver clear instructions remotely.
