General managers for construction companies, also called construction general managers, general contractors, or constructors, are some of the busiest people in the entire workforce. They are in charge of planning, implementing, and tracking safety, compliance, and training activities for hundreds or even thousands of people.

Training employees has many benefits, including increased job satisfaction, morale, efficiency, and innovation. However, many companies treat training sessions as one-off activities and then expect their employees to be superhuman working machines. It doesn’t work like that.

At VAIRKKO, we pride ourselves on providing the fastest and easiest way to manage a company’s workforce in one unified intelligent platform. Our workforce management solutions cover powerful tools such as training management and certification tracking.

Similar to many businesses, we faced many challenges in 2020 that made us adjust some of our business processes from state-wide lockdowns and more. We are, however, thankful for a great year despite the challenges. With your trust, we were able to achieve some amazing goals this year.

When hiring new employees or managing existing ones, when you ask yourself "do they have what it takes?", what are you hoping to find? 

A culture fit? It's beneficial. Applicable job experience / education? Absolutely.  A great personality? Perhaps, but some aspects of a job can’t rely on disposition alone. What about the right skills? Skills aren’t just the words filling the last section of a resume in hopes of meeting an algorithm. 

Whether it be an imposition of pandemic or simply a job perk, there's no denying the surge of remote work opportunities as we near the halfway point of 2020. As this trend continues, many employers are beginning to find that there is an increasing need for eLearning within their organization. The sky is the limit for what can be accomplished from anywhere and there are several benefits to making this shift.

By definition, eLearning is "learning conducted via electronic media, typically on the internet." What does this mean? This means that you are not limited to one type of course or category when it comes to educating your employees. Every organization is constructed of several moving pieces, which consist of multiple employees in a variety of roles. In just one role, there is so much to learn. Take a look at the below, using our imaginary employee Kevin:
