WFH 101
Season 2 - Episode 11: WFH 101 – Many businesses forced into work-from-home models during the pandemic lockdowns have since adopted, or are considering adopting, permanent hybrid workplaces. Employers now face what for many businesses was once unthinkable – a primarily digital workforce. But regardless of where workers perform their jobs, an employer retains significant workplace obligations. So, what rights and duties apply when a worker slips and falls at home or when employees who left the city are asked to return to the office? In this episode, host Adam Goldenberg speaks with three of McCarthy Tétrault's labour and employment experts from across Canada about the moment's most vexing issues for employers. Justine Lindner is a partner in our Toronto office, Laura DeVries is an associate in our Vancouver office, and Émilie Thibault is an associate in our Montréal office.

Zap, You’re Frozen?
Season 2 – Episode 10: Zap, You’re Frozen? The Omicron variant has moved the finish line again, upending personal plans and forcing governments around the world to postpone efforts at reopening in the race to return to normal. In Canada, responses differ from city to city and province to province. Host Adam Goldenberg brings back to the discussion Jean Charest and Paul Zed to discuss Canada’s patchwork response to the Omicron variant, what roles remain for the federal government to intervene, and what businesses and listeners can expect in the near future. Jean Charest is a former Deputy Prime Minister of Canada and a former Premier of Québec. Paul served as a Member of Parliament and as a Parliamentary Secretary. Jean is now a partner in McCarthy Tétrault’s Montréal office, while Paul is a Senior Strategic Advisor to the firm and our clients, based in Toronto.
