Learn how to build a clear and complete work-from-home policy that is legally compliant.

Post-COVID – many firms have decided to keep or are struggling to adjust to hybrid in-person and remote work schedules. As businesses adjust to the new normal where portions, if not all of their workforce will remain remote, they need to adopt policies to govern how and under what circumstances work can be performed in the home.
