Organizations around the region are having to
adapt to social distancing in the workplace because of COVID-19. Although there
might be some urgency in allowing employees to work from home, it is prudent to
develop a policy or guidelines that clearly identify the parameters for
teleworking and helps your company feel confident about employees working
remotely.

In addition to social distancing, employers and
employees are seeing value in using teleworking to retain and recruit their workforce
and to manage long commutes daily.

Our webinar series offers practical guidance on how companies can maximize productivity and decrease employee stress in response to COVID-19.
