Given the crisis facing most employers around the country at present, this podcast (which was essentially broadcast as a webinar) provides essential guidance to employers. Some of the topics addressed include the following:

  • when can you stand-down staff and what restrictions exist around such a step;
  • what other steps can you take and should you be taking in these times;
  • what consultation obligations you might have;
  • how to deal with resistance and interventions from staff on proposed employer measures; and
  • understanding the challenges of a working-from-home model.
