Webinar - Equitable Future of Work: Commuting from Home to Home

An equitable future of work provides employees with work-life harmony and supports their overall well-being, health, safety, and performance. In this webinar, we focus on the ability to work from home while still feeling part of the team.  This includes leveraging technology to make real human connections from home, as well as balancing micro-transitions such that workers can better move between personal and professional spaces.  Managers have a role in supporting these new ways of working in hybrid work arrangements.  This webinar will showcase findings and applications from the psychological and behavioral sciences and the field of human factors and ergonomics to identify some of the research questions that still need to be answered. 

The webinar includes an outstanding panel of experts.  Please join us on Wednesday, June 7th, from 12:00 pm - 1:00 PM EDT.
