Episode Topic:

There is a multitude of factors to consider as employers begin (or continue) to return employees to the physical workplace.

As companies balance operational needs with employee satisfaction, they will simultaneously be juggling health and safety precautions related to the pandemic and the vaccination status of their team members. Woven into all of this is the fact that in most parts of the country, the labor market has put employees in a strong bargaining position, and the work-from-home arrangement has been sufficing for many over the course of the last year.

In this episode of HR Power Hour, join host Tawny Alvarez as she discusses these issues and the legal implications of the employer’s decisions with Attorney Emily Waddell of Verrill’s Labor and Employment Practice Group.

Tawny Alvarez

Tawny prides herself on helping clients comply with the law while simultaneously creating an amazing place to work.

She centers her practice on the understanding that the employment landscape is ever-changing and organizations do not have the time or resources to keep abreast of all these changes-from medical (and recreational) marijuana's effect on drug testing to the effect of social networking in the workplace, including the effect of the use of mobile devices on wage and hour issues.
