Love the presence stuff Bruce!! I just started an HR role in a port, and it's really hard to develop the culture when workers don't socialise with each other anymore. Pre-pandemic they would meet together before shifts, but now they get notified by text. I've only worked in white collar companies before so this is really going to turn everything I know upside down to see how I can make things better/attractive to potential candidates.

yes, the data on slide 22 is specifically about that. Workers who didn't talk or socialise ended up hating their jobs and leaving.
