Frontline and deskless workers make up over 80% of the global workforce, yet they’re often left without the tools they need to succeed. While office employees receive email, computers, and platforms like Office 365, deskless teams face major challenges—limited communication, little access to resources, outdated manual processes, and low engagement. This session explores why addressing these gaps matters and how mobile communication, digital signage, kiosks, and automated workflows can transform the deskless experience. HR leaders will gain practical strategies to improve engagement, safety, productivity, retention, and connection—ensuring frontline teams are supported, empowered, and no longer left behind in today’s digital workplace.

Overview
For office workers, day 1 starts with a computer and email, providing instant access to company resources, workflows, and communications—everything needed for success. These tools support workers throughout the entire employee lifecycle. Unfortunately for the 80% of global workers (2.7 billion people) without a desk, access is limited. No dedicated hardware. Analog resources dominate. Digital communication is rare. Both workers and managers are left with a scattered, sprawling, and chaotic workplace. Without a centralized hub, those challenges are unsolvable—until now. UnDesked organizes the deskless workplace.
