The COVID-19 pandemic has tested companies and workers in unprecedented ways. Tens of millions have been laid off, businesses have shuttered and entire companies are now requiring employees to work from home.
But as work operations have shifted, have priorities shifted too?
The Atlantic asked business leaders how they are handling this crisis and gathered economic experts and academics to examine the future of work. How are corporations balancing short-term needs with long-term goals? How are previous corporate social responsibility initiatives—sustainability, diversity and inclusion, philanthropy, social justice—faring, as the world faces these unprecedented circumstances? And how will the pandemic change the workplace as we know it?
