If you have employees who are burned out at work, it will negatively impact their productivity and job satisfaction. This will cause them to be less engaged with the company and, therefore, create an environment where they are less likely to achieve critical business objectives. This is a dangerous situation where most businesses (and their owners) quickly fall victim to the dark side. They become victims of “The Dip” when their employees are tired, overworked, and under-appreciated. When this happens, it has a domino effect, and soon every aspect of your business starts to suffer. Your sales start to drop off, your expenses go through the roof, and your profits take a nosedive. The solution? Let’s talk about that in this article. 

Invest In Employee Wellbeing

The solution is to invest in the well-being of your employees to prevent this “dip” and to prevent burnout. What does this mean? Simply put, it means you need to give your employees a way to air out their concerns and opinions in a manner where they do not feel stressed about possibly causing workplace misunderstandings. 

This is where the mello application comes in. It has been designed with this very situation in mind. It is a simple, easy-to-use tool that makes it possible for your employees to anonymously state their thoughts about any aspect of their work or the workplace without having to worry about repercussions. It also gives them the opportunity to discuss sensitive issues with you as their “safe-keeper openly.” Anonymity Is Essential! Without anonymity, your employees are far less likely to freely share their true feelings and opinions with you. They will hold back important information because of the possibility of being ridiculed, fired, blocked, or otherwise retaliated against. This is not a situation anyone wants to be in. Therefore, the mello application provides them with this very important protection. It is 100% anonymous. There is no way anyone can tie an employee’s mello comments to their real identity.

An unhappy workforce costs businesses billions of dollars per year. When employees are stressed out and anxious, they perform poorly and make mistakes. On the other hand, when employees are happy and content with their work, they perform at a higher level, make fewer mistakes, and have a greater sense of pride and ownership for their success. The first step towards increased employee wellbeing is listening to your employees. Find out what they want and give it to them. Don’t worry about the “how” just yet. We’ll get to that later. For now, simply use mello to understand their concerns and learn what they want.
