Webinar: When Remote Work Meets Workers Compensation

If your remote employee slips on their own bathroom floor during work hours, is it a Workers' Compensation claim? When Remote Work Meets Workers' Compensation will examine how remote and hybrid work impact work comp exposure. We'll review key legal standards such as “course and scope of employment” and the “personal comfort doctrine” and how these apply outside the traditional workplace, with long-standing rules like the positional risk doctrine still governing claims.

Dive into case studies showing challenges in managing claims, from slips and falls while retrieving work items to repetitive strain from poor ergonomics. The session gives guidance on remote work policies, work-hour expectations and home office safety emphasizing that remote work changes, but doesn’t remove, workers’ compensation risks.
