Webinar - COVID-19: Permanent Impact on Public Sector Workforce

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on NYC and NYS workers and employers. Supervisory, technical, and logistical challenges of rapidly moving employees from on-site to remote or radically restructured locations required flexibility and reexaminations of work processes and service delivery. The collective bargaining process had to keep pace with the need to reassign staff, change hours and work expectations. Join us for a discussion about how some public sector organizations have made changes, which changes have worked and which have not, and what the workplace might look like when we go back to “normal.”
