About
The COVID-19 crisis has put HR in a very unique position. As a role that already wore numerous different hats, many HR professionals are taking on additional responsibilities that are outside of the normal scope of their work. They’ve become their organization’s de facto health expert and legislative authority, and executives are looking to their HR leaders for guidance on what actions to take regarding employee health and safety.

Join us for a free HRCI- and SHRM-approved webinar where HR leaders from widely disparate industries will come together to discuss the changes this crisis has brought to their workforce and their role in the company. We’ll talk about the similarities and differences between their organizations’ approaches to keeping employees informed and engaged, how they’re handling furloughs and separations, and their predictions for what HR in a post-COVID world will look like.

What you will learn:
Learn how HR professionals have stayed connected with their peers and the importance of sharing ideas and strategies
Get some practical strategies and ideas that have worked for other companies from a variety of industries for supporting employees in a crisis
Discuss how the role of HR has already changed and predictions about what the future of HR might look like “post-COVID”
