Today on our quest to discover how businesses in Ireland are coping with remote work, we’re talking to Catherine O’Flynn. Catherine is Head of William Fry’s Employment & Benefits Department. She advises on all contentious and non-contentious employment matters with particular expertise on equality issues.

Remote work came as a necessity during this time for William Fry and the whole company has been working from their homes since the 13th of March, Catherine tells us. As a professional service law firm, remote work was not extremely popular, but they have been trying it out for a while now, and it has been an option for their employees even before the pandemic. They already had the infrastructure, the IT system and support which was put in place for anyone wanting to work from home.
