Voters in the United States flock to polling stations on Nov. 5 to choose between Democratic Vice-President Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump in a tight race for the presidency.

To avoid potential conflicts, 36% of managers in the US indicated that they would implement a remote work policy during election week. Their other reasons for it include:

  • Provide flexibility for voting (79%) 
  • Reducing workplace stress and tension (47%) 
  • Avoiding conflicts between employees with differing political views (34%) 
  • Ensuring safety from potential external unrest (34%) 
  • Boosting employee morale (39%) 

Stacie Haller, chief career advisor from Resume Builder, underscored the need for HR teams to plan how they will respond to the outcome of the US presidential elections.

“Setting expectations and establishing guidelines for appropriate workplace conduct is more important than ever, as organisations navigate this highly charged period. Planning now will be essential to supporting a respectful, cohesive workplace,” Haller said in a statement.
