Workplace Strategies Watercooler 2024: Out of Office—Managing a Remote Work Environment

In this podcast recorded at Ogletree Deakins’ national Workplace Strategies seminar, Kristin Higgins (office managing shareholder, Dallas) is joined by Mike Mahoney (shareholder, Morristown/New York) to discuss the unique challenges employers face when managing a remote or hybrid work environment. Kristin and Mike, who is chair of the firm’s Payroll, Tax, and Fringe Benefits subgroup, discuss the tax consequences that may arise when employees work in different jurisdictions from those in which an employer is registered to do business. In addition, Mike and Kristin review best practices on a range of remote work issues, including expense reimbursements for home-office equipment and travel back to brick and mortar facilities in different states.
