Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC New York City

It is important to understanding how demands for greater remote work flexibility reflect issues unique to different segments of the work force. Now more than ever, employers must evaluate how viewpoints differ based on generation, race, and gender, among other identities, and seek to cultivate positive work environments that embrace these different experiences to reduce legal risk and support DEI initiatives. Join Jackson Lewis P.C. attorneys to discuss the emergent legal, cultural and practical challenges facing employers today and what the future of the workplace holds.

Topics

  • Key legal issues emerging from hybrid workplaces
  • Developing your environmental, social and governance (ESG) policies
  • Implementing or modifying plans that address where and when work will be performed 
    • How these policies and plans create a positive impact on recruitment and retention
  • The importance of DEI assessments and informed programming to cultivate positive work environments 
  • Frameworks for creating a productive, flexible and inclusive workplace
