According to a recent Gallup study, 62% of U.S. employees worked from home this past April, reflecting a global migration to remote environments as the COVID-19 pandemic spread. Many companies were inadequately prepared for the speed and scale of this migration, and the choices these organizations and their employees made will have a long-term impact on investigations over the next five years.
This webcast will focus on the impact of conducting investigations, specifically around competition/antitrust/cartel, with a work-from-home workforce. Challenges include identifying, preserving, collecting and reviewing the many different types of data that emerge in a remote work environment.
Join this webcast to learn from industry experts on what antitrust legal teams can expect as the "new normal" for investigations in the coming years, including how to:
- Identify and preserve emerging data sources for employee and customer communication.
- Implement information governance policies for continued remote work.
- Negotiate collection processes and formats with government regulators.
