Remote work environments introduce new complexities for HR leaders and managers in addressing employee performance issues. Without face-to-face interaction, it can be difficult to identify underlying concerns, measure productivity, and facilitate effective communication. Organizations must develop a proactive strategy to monitor, assess, and address performance issues before they escalate into larger problems.

Limited visibility into daily work habits.

Potential breakdowns in communication and feedback.
