A new U.S. president often marks a shift in the focus of government policy. New laws and executive actions signal what the world can expect from the government in the next four years. And when there is a change in party, as occurred following the 2020 general election, the change can be even more dramatic. Jobs and employment are central to the economy, so it’s customary to see a broad array of changes in those areas with a new president. Often, there are direct implications for the workplace, and employers need to take notice. As Bridgette Klein from Willory, an HR staffing consultancy and Corporate Screening strategic ally, explains, “Anytime there is a change in employment regulations, employers need to take a fresh look at their current practices and make adjustments accordingly.”
