Contributing to information distribution about HIVAIDS in the workplace
SCONES CONSULTING is committed in contributing towards productivity in South Africa through Skills Development. Skills development can kill not two but many birds with one stone.
There is a clear link between skills development and these benefits to the employee:
Employees experience themselves as true assets that add value to business operations.
Employee morale, motivation and commitment are significantly improved.
Business objectives and employee objectives are aligned.
Quality assurance and customer service improves significantly.
Them and us becomes We.
Incentives linked to performance becomes understood, accepted and supported.
The stigma clinging to performance appraisals are removed.
Employee development becomes purposeful
Employees accept accountability for performance.
Employee attitudes changes from conformity to concern
Though these are benefits to the employee, these benefits translate into more motivated, innovative, productive employees and above all, reduction in absenteeism. That intent translates to the increase in the bottom line of the organization.
If organizations can walk their talk that Employees are their most valuable assets , they have to invest in the wellbeing of that asset.
We at SCONES CONSULTING are of the view that all these wonderful benefits are just a pipe dream if we don t have employees as the results of:
Employees perished or are too sick to work due to the scourge of HIV/ AIDS.
They have perished or disabled or incompetent because of Occupational injuries and diseases.
That has informed our approach in ensuring that we have healthy employees in a safe environment which will be an ideal condition to reap the benefits of Skills Development.
Some benefits of skills development from the studies conducted by Department of Labour (www. dol. gov. za ) are:
The benefits can be considered as:
Increased revenue
Increased turnover is generated when workers are able to exploit technology, are able to interact with clients positively, and are willing to identify and exploit new ways of doing things and market opportunities. Skills can contribute to these outcomes, which can translate into improved profits and growth.
Decreased or avoided expenses
Skilled workers can reduce expenses in a number of ways. Workers can undertake routine maintenance; detect faults, solve problems smartly, make fewer ignorant errors and breakages and they can address client complaints in a way that builds relationships. Skills can contribute to all these outcomes.
Intangible benefits
When workers know that their employer is committed to their skills development they are more likely to stay, more likely to tell other skilled workers about their positive working environment making further recruitment possible, more likely to extend their efforts when needed Clients and customers respond well to environments where people work well as teams the list goes on.
