Description

The Covid-19 pandemic has been a catalyst for significant developments in working practices. Most organisations regarded the initial sudden shift to remote working as a temporary emergency measure, often implementing major changes without a systematic assessment of the risks and opportunities. This panel will explore key practical and compliance implications of remote and hybrid work, including employment law considerations, cybersecurity, data protection, and dependence on cloud services. In addition to downside risks, we will consider potential benefits of these new ways of working.
