Returning To Work – Practical Issues Every Employer Needs To Consider

As America prepares to return to work, employers are facing new human resources issues like never before. Some new situations require new solutions, but it is important that employers remember the basics still apply and often provide the best solution. This Alert, which is the third in a three-part series addresses several "new" issues employers will face as America reopens and employees return to work. Of course, those employers who are part of a Critical Infrastructure Sector have heroically soldiered on through the entire pandemic. Of the others, some have remained open but have had some or all employees working remotely, while others curtailed all or most operations. All employers who made changes will now "un-make" them, but those employers who experienced the most drastic changes to their operations since March also may experience the greatest "reopening" shocks in the coming weeks and months.
