Managing Remote Employees Legally & Effectively
Managing remote employees requires clear policies and structure to ensure productivity, legal compliance, and effective communication. Remote work can offer significant benefits, such as cost savings and improved employee satisfaction, but it also presents challenges like social isolation, distractions, and the need for clear expectations around work hours and availability. Employers must address legal considerations, including ADA accommodations, FMLA, and wage and hour laws, while maintaining workplace safety. Regular check-ins, structured onboarding, and appropriate tools are essential for managing a productive and engaged remote team.
