ADME commentary

The ADME angle

The delay of Work from Home legislation until 1 July 2027 has significant implications for dealers in terms of staffing and operational planning, particularly in the context of managing showroom traffic and customer service

What it means for staffing

Dealers can now breathe a sigh of relief as they have more time to assess the potential impact of the legislation on their workforce and make necessary adjustments to ensure a smooth transition

The extra time allows dealers to review their current staffing arrangements and consider flexible work arrangements that may be required to comply with the legislation

Impact on operational planning

With the delayed commencement date, dealers can focus on their current business operations without the added pressure of implementing new policies and procedures to comply with the legislation

This delay also gives dealers the opportunity to review their business continuity plans and make any necessary adjustments to ensure minimal disruption to their operations

Taking action

Dealers can take this opportunity to review their current operational plans and start making preparations for the potential changes that may be required when the legislation comes into effect on 1 July 2027, such as assessing their workforce and making adjustments to their staffing arrangements

One decisive action a dealer could take this week is to conduct a thorough review of their current staffing arrangements and start developing a plan to implement flexible work arrangements that may be required to comply with the legislation
