This is the recording of the 2022 ASA Staffing Law Conference session: Remote Work and Return to Office: Legal Challenges and Opportunities.

The latest Covid variant has underscored that remote and hybrid work is here to stay for much of the workforce—including temporary employees. While remote work may promote talent recruitment and retention, it also presents legal and compliance challenges. Learn the key risks to staffing firms associated with remote or hybrid work environments—including wage and hour compliance, technology use, equal employment opportunities, and client contracts—and get practical mitigation strategies and solutions.
