Association of Corporate Counsel

Event

3.11.21
12:00 PM - 2:15 PM EST

First hour: New Requirements Bring New Expectations

From the persistence of COVID-19 to the prospects of a vaccine to the change in administration, managing safety and health is at the forefront of the American workplace in 2021. Requirements and expectations of employers change daily. The first hour of this session will survey critical current issues in workplace safety and health, discuss how employers may best prepare themselves to meet these challenges, and will summarize and forecast changes on the horizon with the new Presidential administration.

Second hour: Employee Mental Health: A Must-Have Workplace Safety Factor

In-house counsel and human resource professionals face increasing challenges related to the mental and emotional wellbeing of their organization’s workforce. Your workers are dealing with stress, fear, anxiety, depression and substance use every single day. A focus on employee mental health drives engagement, creativity, productivity and collaboration, among so many other factors. Depression costs employers an estimated $44 billion each year in lost productivity and according to the World Health Organization, depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide. Our presenters will provide and review sample policies and workplace program ideas, and will discuss practical actions an employer can take to support and improve employee mental health.
