It's Fall Y'all!
Tomorrow is the first day of fall! We are excited, can you tell? With fall comes new routines, football, colder weather and a chance to create and establish new rhythms. In this newsletter we are looking ahead and looking back on some of the things you may have missed this summer.

It’s officially back-to-school season! For HR, that means it’s time to get your ducks in a row and fall back into an efficient routine before open enrollment starts.

WITH SUMMER ENDING, RETURN TO OFFICE LOOMS
"Many employers marked Sept. 5—the day after Labor Day—as the date by which employees would be required to return to offices after working from home during much of the COVID-19 pandemic.
