Alternative Work Arrangements
 
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
Is working from home the right choice for your firm?
Wouldn’t it be nice to work from home at your kitchen table, with the coffee pot right at hand? Allowing your employees the opportunity to work from home seems like a perk. But for employers, it is much more involved. There are legal issues, security of firm and client data, and the impact on the firm’s finances to consider.
If your firm is considering offering alternative work arrangements, this is a Webinar you will want to attend. Stay in the convenience of your office and gain important information for your employees.
  • Discuss the legal issues involved for the law firm when employees work from home, including Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), worker’s compensation, safety, etc.
  • Construct technology policies that will protect their firms’ data and safeguard the confidentiality of client data
  • Estimate the impact on their firms’ finances, such as overtime, tax issues, and office space considerations
