BCMA Webinar Series: Work from Home & Remote Positions - Experiences from the Creston Museum
This episode was converted from a recorded webinar.
Wednesday, January 24th, 202412:00 pm – 1:00 pm PT
Since 2020, we have globally seen a rise in remote and hybrid work, but as we return to a “new normal,” many workplaces are abandoning these models. However, many museums, galleries, and heritage sites have limited workspace, equipment, accessibility, and funding obligations that make the idea of hiring a remote or hybrid employee simultaneously intriguing and complicated.
On January 24, join Tammy Bradford for a webinar on the ins and outs of embracing work-from-home and hybrid positions in your workplace. Tammy will discuss the Creston Museum’s process of creating hybrid positions, the multifaceted benefits of work-from-home positions for both employers and employees and some specific objections and hesitations that the Creston Museum has had to address in their process. -
