Selina, WeWork, Zoom to Help Europe Craft New Remote Work Policies
Skift Take
Politicians writing the new rules for the remote work economy need big industry names onboard. Hopefully they'll be able to cut through Brussels' characteristic bureaucracy and define something meaningful.
The European Parliament has enlisted senior execs from Selina, WeWork, and Zoom to help it draw up policies to address remote work challenges.
On February 23, Rafael Museri, CEO and co-founder of hospitality brand Selina, will be rubbing shoulders with European Commission policymakers, politicians and academics at the first in a series of private "European Union Policy Roundtables." The parliament wants to make remote work "healthier" by overcoming barriers such as isolation and tax complications.
The Council of the European Union, which represents government ministers from each European Union country, who meet to discuss, amend and adopt laws, and coordinate policies, is also participating.
The first event, titled “The need for community in a remote work economy,” will tackle loneliness and alongside Museri, speakers include Constance Hadley, a lecturer and organizational psychologist at Boston University and European Parliament members Lidia Pere
