The Ultimate Solution for Reducing Stress and Increasing Retention in Law Firms
Attracting and retaining high-calibre talent has become increasingly challenging across industries. There are many factors that can be attributed to this however long working hours, the volume of work that needs to be completed and high-pressure situations are some of the factors behind talent leaving the legal profession. Having a work/life balance is one of the top areas that lawyers see as being more important now than before while studies show that legal employees report that they spend between 1-10 hours overtime per week due to last-minute document changes and time-consuming processes.
Within the legal industry, it is becoming more common for employees to experience burnout. It has been reported that it is no longer uncommon for lawyers to be on sick pay from six months up to a year due to burnout. There are many negative effects that burnout can have on a firm such as reduced efficiency and inattention to detail, which can have severe consequences for management and client relationships.
By adopting and utilising technologies, you can ensure that your firm adopts an approach that facilitates the needs of your employees leading to a reduction in stress and an increase in retention.
