Resource of the Day

HR teams are being warned about notification fatigue, as constant pings, updates, and internal messages may be creating distraction more than engagement. While internal communication tools are vital, too many alerts are leaving employees overwhelmed and tuning out important information. Experts suggest simplifying messaging, reducing unnecessary notifications, and segmenting updates by relevance to help teams focus. HR should treat internal communication as a strategy, not just an output.
