I was thinking the other day that the work at home trend is going to continue because many corporations may see a financial benefit of having people at home instead of the expenses of pay for leases and offices etc.
I mentioned that I did not have much in regards to specifics that need to be discussed yet, but today I thought of one that might already have some court cases and that is workers compensation.
Are corporations going to be able to drop workers compensation, yet what happens if you have an accident while technically on the clock, but at home. This is just one example that will need to be addressed by labor groups or business groups or whoever, yet something will need to be addressed or as you can guess in our litigious society Courts will be clogged up and then case law becomes the only law for this issue. And personally I think this needs real legislation from Representation than a bunch of Courts making ad hoc law.
Again there are going to be many issues that come up as the work from home environment evolves. As times change so do the things we need to do to make sure we are not taken advantage of from corporations. Do not think they won’t.
Anyway just another thought to discuss as these changes come about.
Stay safe
