Internal Communication Tools Improve Morale When Used Right
Hourly employees who don’t work in an office have different obstacles to overcome when it comes to employee communication tools.

- They don’t want multiple logins.
- They don't want a company app to their personal devices - either because of privacy concerns or because they use pay-as-you-go data plans.
