Summary:

Remote work is here to stay. As the post-pandemic workplace evolves, the need for clear, non-discriminatory remote work policies is key for continuing success in the re-emerging economy. As recent events have shown, working remotely can be just as much a challenge for employees to navigate as it is for those on a supervisory level. Making an amendment to an employee handbook can make expectations clear for employees and leads to less business interruption and more efficiency.

Vaccination policies are also here to stay. These policies can be either mandatory or voluntary. Either approach can raise issues for employees. For example, some employees feel strongly that their employers should mandate vaccines before returning employees to the workplace to protect everyone's health and safety. Alternatively, other employees may think that a mandatory policy, or even requests to determine vaccination status, are an invasion of their privacy.

Join TRICOM and Curtin & Heefner for our November Industry Insider webinar series as Tim Szuhaj explores the importance and details of these critical new policies.
