IKONOMIKAL: ACHIEVE PRODUCTIVITY AND INCREASE OPPORTUNITIES IN DIFFICULT SITUATIONS

The time to consume, resources to use and monies to spend saved by the employees are income to the company and benefit to the former. These initiatives connote the application and indication of the culture of “efficiency”. While the reverse is when crisis hammers unexpectedly. Worst when no solution is available to address the problem. No one can bring back the time to make the change. We can only prepare for the future. This makes being proactive becomes essential to assure continuity in business and minimize difficulties to zero. What will you do when what you don’t like happened or what you fear most to lose is gone?

The unfortunate events happening to people in our communities, provinces, country and even internationally are quite bothering. For example alone is the ongoing epidemic of communicable diseases such as NCOV, ASF and SARS caused by viruses and pests. Likewise are nature related disasters such as typhoon, flood, earthquake, volcanic eruption and other calamities due to global warming. We might as well include those attributed to poor political leadership and mismanagement such as problems of corruption, dengvaxia mess, traffic, fire, drug menace, robbery, war, civil or labor strife, criminality and terrorism.

The above mentioned situations are obstacles in operating, moving and working accordingly thereby accumulating unnecessary burden and cost to the organizations and stakeholders. This is because efficiency is affected and opportunities become limited denying the dream growth for the company and of the working people.

Everyone knows that the greatest asset of all organizations is of course the human resource. Man by nature is more productive when they are happy. If any of the above conditions occur, naturally the people become unproductive and then their performance is affected and so is the company.

We admire the top executives and managers who decide to achieve efficiency that brings more controlled environment, time and cost savings, and business opportunities. There is no other way but to move forward instead of being still or else the company will be a history. Not tomorrow, not next month, not next year, not in the long term plan, it is a must to act today. Population continues to balloon. Competition increases and becomes demanding. If you can’t, others will.

The good thing is, there are people of the world who never get tired of exploring for the improvement of how we work and live on earth. We are very thankful to them. Technological innovation is one among the best solutions the present generation has to offer. Though far behind in technology by half a decade from other foreign countries. But the hope we are clamoring for is already at hand. Meaning even our Philippine government have enacted a law on January 11, 2019 called Republic Act No. 11165 “AN ACT INSTITUTIONALIZING TELECOMMUTING AS AN ALTERNATIVE WORK ARRANGEMENT FOR EMPLOYEES IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR” (https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/2018/12/20/republic-act-no-11165/) or work at home or anywhere, even outside the country.
