In the last episode of HR Works: COVID-19 Update, we began speaking with employment attorney Jacob M. Monty, managing partner and founder of Monty & Ramirez LLP about the potential for concerted activity during the pandemic. Today we dig a little deeper into how collective action happens and what you can do to avoid it.
