Title: How Can You Help Your Staff Work from
1How Can You Help Your Staff Work from Home?
2HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act) Still Applies
Your employees will need to secure personal
health information they have at home. They need
to make sure screen savers are enabled.
3Computers are Mandatory
Its hard to work from home without a computer.
And you probably dont want to have people using
their home computer to store files. Of course, if
theyre using cloud-based platforms like
NextAgency, thats not an issue. The key is to
avoid having business (and PHI) stored on home
computers.
4Keep Connections Secure
Make sure your team uses a reputable VPN. These
can be used to enable colleagues to access your
office servers. But even if youre entirely in
the cloud, a VPN can assure that communications
are more provide. NordVPN is a good option, but
there are others.
5Keep in Touch
You may be working in different places, but
youre still a team. You need to continue to act
like one. Agree on a video conference tool youll
all use (e.g., Zoom or Skype, both of which are
easy to use and have free versions). Hold regular
web staff meetings to stay connected. And use
these tools to reach out whenever youd otherwise
drop by their office.
6Enable Secure Access to Information
This is where a modern, cloud-based agency
management system like NextAgency comes in.
NextAgency keeps all your data and forms handy.
They enable you to assign and monitor tasks and
client activity. You can upload your commissions,
run reports to analyze your business, and even
launch marketing campaigns. All from your home.
