[Webinar] 2022 Crossing Borders: Remote Work Series
Crossing Borders: Remote Work Series
The pandemic forcefully introduced many companies and employees to remote work. Although many have returned to the office, many others are embracing the idea of remote work indefinitely, and employers and employees alike face a new set of challenges that come along with it. Permits and visas, tax implications, the type of work an individual performs, the type of employee an individual is classified as—all of these things impact companies hiring for and individuals performing remote work.
WLG member firm lawyers discussed these issues and more from the EMEA, Americas, and Asia-Pacific regions.
