Telecommuting Employees: How Nonprofits Can Avoid the Legal Pitfalls

More and more nonprofit employers are allowing their employees to telecommute, but many of them do not consider the legal issues raised by telecommuting before allowing employees to work from home.  Federal and state laws still apply to employees working from home and telecommuting raises a number of unique issues under those laws, including wage and hour (such as overtime and what hours are compensable), safety and health, reasonable accommodation, privacy, discrimination, trade secret protection, and tax concerns, among others.

Please join us for an in-depth discussion of these and other key legal issues nonprofit employers should consider before permitting employees to telecommute.
