Who Are Your Frontline Workers?

1. Deskless workers

They are not tied to a specific workstation and perform their duties in varying locations, such as on the sales floor, in the field, or on the factory line.

2. Service/Task-oriented workers

Focus on specific tasks or services, often interacting directly with customers or products. They could be delivering a parcel, servicing a machine, or helping a customer find the right product.

3. Mobile-dependent workers

Primarily rely on mobile devices to perform their job functions. They may use smartphones for everything from communication to data collection to task management.

Why Lark Frontline?

Kevin Spahn, General Partner at Emergence, highlights the challenge faced by deskless workers in the absence of exceptional software tools.

Globally, 80% of the workforce are frontline workers, but more than half of them have a hate-hate relationship with their workplace tech.

  • 60% of frontline workers were unsatisfied with the technology provided by their employers

  • 56% had to use their own technology to better perform their work

  • 52% consider quitting their jobs due to inadequate technological resources
