The Americans with Disabilities Act mandates that employers must provide reasonable accommodations — which could include remote work — for employees with disabilities, including mental health conditions. Increased awareness of these rights under the ADA could lead to significant changes in return-to-office dynamics, with more employees requesting remote work to manage mental health conditions.

Though eyestrain is nothing new, the condition spiked during the pandemic as employees pivoted to working on screens from their homes and using Zoom nonstop to participate in meetings. Now the pandemic is over, yet remote work isn’t going anywhere. Enter the age of screen fatigue.

The distance between employees and their supervisors has grown steadily since 2020, literally. ADP payroll data shows that since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the share of “cross-metro” remote workers employed at large firms in the U.S. increased from 23% in February 2020 to over 31% by mid-2023, and that trend shows little signs of slowing down.

If Nora Ephron’s romantic comedies were set in the late 2010s, she might have written a meet-cute that looked a lot like Jen Gottlieb and Chris Winfield’s. Gottlieb moved to New York City to study musical theater. She’d landed a role in the Broadway national tour of The Wedding Singer and then spent years hosting a VH1 show called That Metal Show —no matter that she wasn’t exactly a fan of heavy metal music. “Before I knew it, five years had gone by, and I had built

I’d like to open this article with a disclaimer. I dislike the term ‘quiet quitting’. It’s a term coined by employers who have pushed the boundaries of employment to make it seem like a good employee should be doing more than what their job description calls for. Longer (unpaid) hours, tasks that don’t fall into the scope of services of their job, monitoring email at all hours, even taking work home with them.

Earlier this year, I called my son’s pulmonologist at Lurie Children’s Hospital to reschedule his appointment and was met with a busy tone. Then I went to the MyChart medical app to send a message, and that was down as well. A Google search later, I found out the entire hospital system’s phone, internet, email and electronic health records system were down and that it was unknown when access would be restored.

Bias and discrimination are often inadvertently built into the algorithms we rely on. Here’s how some tech developers working toward equitable AI are correcting that. Data scientist and author Meredith Broussard doesn’t think technology can solve most of our issues. In fact, she’s concerned about the implications of our dependency on technology—namely, that technology has proven itself to be unreliable and, at times, outright biased.
