The Deskless Report  2021

Nudge surveyed 865 deskless workers and 300 deskless leaders to answer one question: “What’s the state of the deskless workforce?”
Deskless Report cover

In June 2021, Nudge surveyed 865 deskless workers and 300 deskless leaders, and collected data from Nudge’s 55,000 frontline users, to answer a question: “What’s the state of the deskless workforce?”

In exploring the viewpoints of both workers and leaders, this report delves into the disconnect between them – the gaps between what workers want and what head office is providing. In this report, we’re looking at who deskless workers are, and what they desperately need in order to do their jobs. But we’re also looking at the role of the deskless leader: what keeps them up at night, how they’re prioritizing the employee experience, and what they’re investing in next year and beyond.

Read the full report to learn: 

  • What drives engagement and motivation in deskless workers
  • The #1 challenge facing deskless leaders right now
  • The state of deskless worker communication
  • The state of deskless worker feedback 
  • How leaders are investing in employee experience in 2022

The quantified benefits that Forrester identified in this Nudge-commissioned Total Economic Impact™ study are: 

  • A 3-5% increase in same store sales: education and readiness campaigns improved associate confidence and their ability to recommend, cross-sell, and upsell. 
  • A 10% higher retention rate for deskless workers: improvements in the employee experience lead to a more engaged workforce and less turnover. 
  • 60% more efficient communication between store managers and frontline: replacing fragmented, time-consuming communication channels led to quicker and more effective communication, and shorter pre-shift meetings. 

The results? A three-year 484% return on investment.
