Communications Strategy Planning Templates for Your Production Floor

Forget the endless debate about the communication challenges around hybrid work and the return to the office—what about the 2.5 billion people who don’t work at desks?

Many are on manufacturing floors and are already hard to connect with through traditional company comms. When they’re on the production floor, most employees don’t have access to a smartphone or computer—or even a company email address.

So, it’s hard for them to get the information they need to feel connected and be productive. The communication problem hinders operational efficiencies and innovation as well as making it difficult to engage employees. Then, there are the knock-on effects such as attracting and retaining talent, and the practical issue of safety and compliance requirements.

The templates in this guide will help you develop an effective and actionable comms strategy based on the priorities of your business.

Use them to identify your communications pain points, determine how those challenges align with your top priorities, and rank your priorities to form an action plan.
