In the last few posts, we’ve investigated the many use cases for Clerbo. What was first described as a preboarding and onboarding tool for hybrid workforces, Clerbo has grown into an all-encompassing employee lifecycle management software and an integral element of the career lifecycle.

A sales enablement platform for product marketing: In the face of a global pandemic, many of the old ways of doing business got off the table and made room for vast and opportunistic technological improvements. It did for Y Soft too.

Let’s start with the legend. Back in the 1970s, a popular TV actor did a television commercial for dog food. In it, Lorne Greene told the world he fed his own dog Alpo. Soon after, the rumor spread that the president of Kal Kan dog food personally ate a can of the stuff at a shareholder’s meeting to prove how delicious and nutritious the product was. Yum, right?

Congratulations, HR!  You’ve hired well. The paperwork’s in order. Your new employee’s met the team. They understand the expectations of their job and where to find the tools they need to meet them.

The happiest and most frequent reason your employees take a leave of absence is the arrival of a new family member. Maybe it’s Dad who stays home with the baby. Maybe it’s Mom. Whoever takes on the full-time new parenting role is going to have a great time—and be away from work long enough for the work environment to change and evolve. In some parts of the world—here in the Czech Republic, for instance, that’s usually two years. In other countries, parental leave may be as short as three months. While individual needs and experiences may and do vary, the fact remains that the new parent who’s been changing diapers and singing lullabies for months or even years is going to have some catching up to do when s/he comes back to work.
