Remote work allows workers to pursue job opportunities across the country and expands employers’ pool of applicants. The pandemic introduced remote work to millions of workers and companies, and for many, remote work will be the new normal going forward. This trend will have wide-ranging effects on the labor market, and local economies as the geographic ties between employees and the workplace become less important. 

Join our conversation with Chief Economist at Upwork, Adam Ozimek, to discuss how companies can respond to the long-term expansion of remote work and its geographic implications. 

Learning objectives:

• How many workers will be working remotely in the long term? And where will they be located?
• How will companies adjust their recruitment strategies and compensation to accommodate remote workers?
• What will these trends mean for the labor market and local economies going forward?

 Who Should Attend: Executives with strategic responsibilities, especially in HR, strategy, and finance, as well as economists.
