Balancing Work & Cancer Webinar: Balancing Remote Work & Cancer

The fact that more and more companies are revising their policies on remote work, allowing employees to work from someplace other than a traditional communal office, is welcome news for many people — especially, for some cancer patients and survivors who experience challenges from treatment that make it difficult to endure a long commute, be in a crowded and potentially germ-filled workspace or stay focused in a distracting environment. 

Join this webinar for a robust discussion exploring: 

  • The challenges associated with working remotely either full or part-time
  • How to approach your employer to request the opportunity to work remotely 
  • Techniques to ensure effective communication with your employer and coworkers, when working from home

If you plan on requesting continuing education credits for a webinar series, you MUST complete all of the following steps:

  1. Register for each live webinar presentation for which you plan on requesting a CE.
  2. Prior to the session, you will receive an email with phone and web log-in information.

  5. Both the post-session test and evaluation form must be completed and submitted within two weeks of the date that the webinar was held. For example, if a webinar is held January 1, these two documents will be due January 15th.

  6. You must pass the post-session test with a score of 80% or higher. You will see your score when you submit your post-test. Please press done, regardless of your score.
