While the nation waits for the New Administration to start making changes in focus for the workplace, it is imperative to understand what the forecast tells us and how Employers and Professionals can prepare. The new agenda for the workplace by the President and Vice-President will shift some of the regulations from the previous administration but, we have received information on what changes are expected for 2021.
Employers should review the proposed changes and see how they impact their industry, Federal state, and local regulations. They will need to make the changes in their policies and Employee Handbook. Employees need Employers to prepare and communicate any changes effectively. The changes will impact the budget and compliance efforts may need to be adjusted. Training will be a huge factor to communicate any changes in the focus for Employers.
Regulatory Agencies are preparing for what they consider changes in regulations and focus on a change in compliance efforts. Violations of regulation will take center stage and there will be a scramble to make announcements of the changes. The list of agenda items from this training will provide Employers with what and how the changes will impact them.
