Are there tax implications of remote and hybrid workers? \nJoin McInnes Cooper Labour & Employment Lawyers Alex Warshick and Abigail Herrington for a virtual roundtable conversation to help you respond to the ramifications of remote workers in your business. \nFor members of CPHR (NS\, NL\, PEI)\, this session counts for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) credits.

SUMMARY:Implementing a Digital Twin of an Organization (DTO) for Manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:This four-day workshop (delivered virtually over four half-day sessions) helps manufacturers define the critical success factors for designing\, implementing\, and utilizing a DTO. Using real-world manufacturing examples and an interactive manufacturing case study\, participants learn “ready to apply” tips and techniques to model and optimize production processes\, supporting operations\, product costing\, and overall profitability. \nKey Learning Objectives \n\nLearn how to initiate\, align\, and sustain manufacturing process analysis and modeling to optimize asset and/or labour capacities and utilizations\, improve operational planning\, and enrich costing and operational budgeting in a manufacturing setting\nUnderstand the role of DTO modeling technology using an illustrative Canadian DTO software\, Collaborative Business Planning (CBP)\, for process and cost flow visualization and “what-if” scenario-planning analysis\nAppreciate the value of analyzing current state and simulating future state manufacturing operations in a collaborative environment to improve profitability and long-term viability of the business\n\nWho Should Attend and Why? \nThis workshop provides foundational training for leveraging operational and financial data to develop highly-visual interactive DTO models for any manufacturer. Although any functional role will benefit\, positions typically related to DTO implementations include: \n\nProduction managers focused on resource capacity requirements while decreasing lead times\, increasing throughputs\, and realizing cost reduction targets\nContinuous Improvement (CI) managers responsible for executing process improvement initiatives and establishing/maintaining an organizational CI culture\nMaintenance and Supply Chain managers responsible for aligning and optimizing the supporting processes for streamlining manufacturing\nFinancial managers responsible for resource planning\, operational and financial budgeting\, and/or costing and profitability analysis\nStrategic managers/planners dealing with the impact of future customer needs\, supply chain disruptions\, sustainability initiatives\, investment decisions\, and other business changes
