During the pandemic, working from home became a necessity for many categories of workers. Many workplaces put working from home arrangements in place very quickly without necessarily addressing all compliance and best practice issues. As restrictions ease, we expect to see more permanent working from home arrangements put in place. It is now time for employers to review their working from home processes, partly to ensure they are compliant with their obligations, but also to ensure that the working from home arrangements are effective and beneficial for all involved.
We will address the following in the webinar:
- Compliance with industrial instruments and terms and conditions of employment
- Compliance with record keeping obligations
- Consideration of when an employee is at work at home and when are they just at home
- Determining if home is a safe place to work
- Dealing with confidential information
- Whether an employer can require an employee to return to the workplace
- What employers now need to consider
Presenting will be Libby Pallot, Principal and Kelly Ralph, Senior Associate in Russell Kennedy’s Workplace Employment and Safety team.
