The holidays are coming again. A time of togetherness, family, friends, and perhaps also presents. But for companies, it can also be a stressful period with all the challenges that come with it. How do you ensure that your company keeps running smoothly?
The challenges of the holidays;
- Workload: The demand for the products or services offered often increases.
- Sick leave: Due to the dark days, less sunlight, circulating viruses, or the well-known winter blues, absenteeism can increase during this period.
- Missing home: During the holidays, employees often prefer to be at home with their family and therefore have less motivation.
How can you as an employer make a difference;
- Flexible deployment: To prevent your permanent employees from becoming overloaded, it may be wise to use temporary workers to handle peak workloads.
- Appreciation: Where employees feel valued, they are more loyal, productive, and actively contribute to the company's success. A simple 'well done' can make a world of difference.
- Communication: Open and clear communication creates a positive working atmosphere and can also help increase productivity.
The benefits of working with Jump Into People;

- Flexible contracts: Temporary workers can be deployed for short or long periods (depending on the need).

Please note! If you want to use temporary workers during the holidays, pay close attention to legal aspects such as: allowances, working hours, or holiday arrangements.
