Webcast #3 – Post-Pandemic Telework and Employee Mobility: Legal and Tax Issues for Employers

This webcast will be presented in French.

During the pandemic, many employers were forced to rethink their work methods and adapt to the reality of telework.  Some employers are now considering adopting it on an ongoing basis after the pandemic and even allowing for greater employee mobility. For example, some employers may consider closing their facilities in Quebec and adopting telework exclusively or implementing a policy allowing employees to work at the location of their choice. However, decisions like these may have legal and tax consequences for employers.

In this presentation, our speakers will cover some of the issues that employers should consider when making these decisions. They will also provide an overview of certain legal and tax issues of importance to employers and review some practical cases.
