3. Other HR concerns
To inform or seek any other kind of HR-related concern, please send an email at hr@webdew.com
4. Slack/ Click up
It is the messaging service that is used within the company. You will be added to your respective team Channel wherein you can converse with all the members of the team. Make the best use of Slack by messaging the concerned person on the channel regarding any work/concern/update/query that you may have. Kindly note that direct messages are not to be entertained by anyone except the Operations team.
You are requested to go through all the announcements made in the Announcement channel and acknowledge them today itself. A positive understanding tone of messages, at all times, is much appreciated by everyone.
5. Time Monitoring
To keep an efficient time log, we use the applications of Clickup and Time Doctor. Time must be switched on and off only through Clickup & Time Doctor. And the time logged must be in the correct folder/project. You may contact your Captain to seek details of the correct Clickup project/task to log time.
Time Doctor tracks the hours logged in by the employee and supports prompt monitoring. On your system/laptop, webcams must be kept enabled for Time Doctor.
- The application takes a photo and does not make any video
- Photos are taken at regular intervals, it is not a minute to a minute photo collection
- Only the members with admin access can view your shots
- The webcam shots must clear and should show you working
- Shots wherein you are absent will account for a negative impression.
6. Job availability
Considering the post that you hold, it is imperative to maintain a good degree of availability. This can be enhanced by the optimum usage of smartphones. Please download Slack/ Click up and email on your mobile. During office hours, Slack/ Click up messages must be replied to within 5 mins. Before and after office hours, Slack/ Click up messages can be replied to within a stretched period of 20 mins. Promptness in replying to fellow employees and third-party contacts is essential for our business. No leniency will be showcased towards delayed replies.
7. Appearance
Considering the concerns raised by the Covid-19 pandemic, the company is operating on a work-from-home basis. But this in no way has lowered our professional outlook and approach. You are requested to be seated on a table and chair as you perform your daily work. As you interact with others and attend meetings, please be presentable and maintain appropriate behavior as expected while working from the office space.
8. Daily report
The evening (Day end) report will include a summary of tasks done throughout the day and the time consumed per task. These reports are shared on respective team Slack/ Click up channels. Please ensure that for the first 15 days, you have at least one video meeting with your team lead every day.
