Trust employees to work flexibly and productivity will blossom says the Head of HR at Cisco UK&Ireland…

This is our fundamental belief at vivoHR – treat your employees like grown ups, expect them to behave like adults, allow them to manage their workloads and their working time – and most employees will respond positively and behave accordingly.

Of course there may be the odd employee who abuses your trust and that of course is where you need to manage effectively (and utilise our HR help if need be!) to deal with troublesome employees so that you can then trust the great team you build in your business.
