Talk at Ten: Equality in the COVID-19 (Virtual) Workplace

In this month’s edition of Talk at Ten we’ll be placing a spotlight on the markedly different impacts that working from home during the pandemic has had on different groups.

With children once again being home schooled has additional childcare been evenly split between the genders? How have staff relatively lower down the pay scale, and potentially without the proper facilities for a true ‘home office’ fared? What can employers be doing to look after their staff now that working from home is the norm?
