Election season: the next turn in the wild ride of 2020

With the election just two weeks away, tensions are high all over. As employers, you’ll want to be aware of the impact on your team.
• Consider encouraging employees to take time on or before Nov. 3 to vote in person (some are recognizing Election Day as a paid holiday).
• Acknowledge that the results — or waiting on the results of — Election Day and the days after may be tough for many.
• Be mindful of conversations that can derail productivity and encourage people to take time for space if needed.
•  Remind staff to avoid commentary that may offend others with different views.
