SUMMARY:Webinar: Working Hard or Hardly Working: Managing a (Partially) Remote Workforce
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER: https://obj.ca/event/webinar-working-hard-or-hardly-working-managing-a-partially-remote-workforce/\n\n\n\nThe COVID-19 pandemic made working from home a more widespread practice. However\, the feasibility of continued working from home can vary depending on the nature of an employer's operations. The practice can also raise various employment-related issues for employers to navigate. It is important for employers to understand their rights and obligations when it comes to working from home\, whether they have implemented the practice in their workplace or need to respond to an employee's request to work from home.\n\nJoin J.D. Sharp and Negeen Yazdani of Emond Harnden LLP in an informative and practical seminar regarding the practice of working from home and how employers can address related issues that may arise. The discussion will cover topics including:\n\n\n	Whether working from home is a privilege or a right\;\n	When working from home may be required as a result of the duty to accommodate under human rights legislation\; and\n	How to address performance management or discipline issues in relation to the practice of working from home.\n\n\nPlease note\, registered attendees will be sent a video playback link to share with colleagues.\n\nWho should attend?\n\n\n	HR professionals\n	Business owners\n	Managers\n	Legal advisors\n	Anyone managing or navigating work-from-home policies
