It seems as though the pandemic has brought on many opportunities and hardships for the blue-collar industry. This week, Team Engine decided to look into what companies can do to help their employees and how companies can utilize this time to expand their business. See what you should be doing: 

Wellness Programs For Blue-Collar Workers

Blue-collar workers are less likely to engage in wellness programs and often aren’t provided with insurance as a benefit on the job. Blue-collar workers are out in the field, so it’s surprising they don’t see the same if not more benefits than white-collar workers as their jobs are more strenuous.
