Creating Next Generation Workplaces - Setting Up A Virtual Workplace Plan

PALO ALTO, Calif. - May 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Why Should You Attend:

Technology at lightning speed continues to reduce the global gap and virtual workplaces are everywhere as an expectation and is even used in some companies as a way to reduce overhead costs. Some employees have never known any kind of workplace but a virtual one. Working virtually has overnight become so mainstream that in some respects you're almost considered "old school" if your business doesn't at least allow it for some jobs.

But as more and more employees flood into a hodgepodge of largely individually negotiated work "agreements", the problems can begin. It seemed easy - employees could just work in a different place, but actually it turned out to be a different way of working. So as they say - fail to plan, then plan to fail.

This HR compliance webinar will discuss in detail the compliance hotspots and considerations of different HR laws implementation in a virtual environment. From job identification issues, existing policy revisions, clarifying performance expectations, having to plan communications, and different methods of employee selection, it will cover all important matters that need careful consideration and planning in a virtual workforce.

It will help attendees to identify how to foster teamwork between people who never traditionally meet or even seen each other.
