Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

Now that borders have reopened and both employees and businesses are wanting to return to some kind of normalcy as we progress into 2022 – we are currently fielding a lot of questions from employers regarding bringing their employees back to the office. For example, can we do it, how should we do it, and are there any alternatives? We are also seeing some hybrid working approaches introduced that are tailored specifically to their employees.

With a raft of mis-information out there, Law Squared is hosting a webinar for ACC members to come and ask questions regarding bringing employees back to the office and hybrid working options. Hosted by Andrew Brooks and Grace Cue in Law Square's Employment + Workplace Relations team, they will run through the:

  • current hybrid working landscape in Australia;
  • legal aspects of hybrid working;
  • five main hybrid working models we are currently seeing;
  • potential risks and pitfalls; and
  • step-by-step plan to selecting and implementing your own hybrid working model.

She also assists with other areas, including reviewing and preparing contracts of employment and contractor agreements, and providing strategic guidance and advice to clients on complex areas of Australian employment law.
