Crisis Q2 2022: Labor force news

Our latest?crisis report?looked at how economic conditions are creating a comms atmosphere that means the ways in which companies are interacting with their employees is of upmost importance.

We looked at three different examples of companies facing problems with their employees, from individuals to internal comms.?
