Employers must adapt to the future of work to retain and recruit top payroll talent, and those companies that embrace remote work will win.

 Hear from a panel of APA members and experts at the free webinar [**Rethinking the Workplace: Be Part of the Future of Payroll as It Takes Shape**](https://ebiz.americanpayroll.org/ebusiness/Education/ViewClass.aspx?ClassID=7319) moderated by Robert Half. The webinar will teach attendees about trends impacting today's payroll departments, including hiring and onboarding strategies, how geographic boundaries are changing, and return-to-the-office challenges.

The session will focus on ways to create an optimal environment and determine a strategy that meets everyone's needs, whether hybrid, fully remote, or in the office.

**Learning Objectives:**

1. Explore what payroll teams are saying about going back to the office vs. staying remote
2. Learn how to make sure those returning to the office and those who aren't have equal opportunities
3. Examine creating a hybrid strategy for employees and best practices
