Description

DiversityInclusionHumanRightsNow that the pandemic is endemic, remote work issues have become vexatious for both employers and employees. Both employers and employees are struggling to make sense of today’s application of pandemic employment, immigration, compensation/benefits/rewards, tax, discrimination and diversity practices.

This panel will address those issues and offer both legal and practical solutions and best practices for employers in their quest to retain talent post-pandemic without compromising future business imperatives brought on by potential industry downturns. Employer compliance, business demands and employee health and welfare will be addressed by discussing risks and benefits, needs and wants, law versus policy and current employment practices against possible terminations. Immigration, tax, employment, and compensation/benefits issues have never been so complex.

This is a time to take stock of worldwide employment rules and practices and consider how the future of employment/immigration/tax law will adapt to a world in need of talent during a period of significant and likely continued uncertainty.
