The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore a subject more fully. Are you looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this Compliance into the Weeds episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly delve into JP Morgan Chase’s treatment of employees who commented on the bank’s Return to the Office policy.
JP Morgan’s recent decision to require employees to be back in the office five days a week caused the bank to disable employee comments on the internal announcement, citing backlash. Tom and Matt explore the implications this has on workplace respect, speak-up culture, and employee morale, juxtaposed with the compliance officer’s role in measuring and maintaining corporate culture. They also detail how these corporate policies might reflect broader trust issues and potential fallout from a discontented workforce.
Additionally, the episode revisits Meta’s (formerly Facebook) recent rollback on DEI initiatives and its promotion of a more ‘freewheeling’ speech environment, considering the ethical and compliance ramifications of such a culture shift. The hosts compare these actions to other reported corporate behaviors that may undermine workplace respect and discuss the fragile balance a Chief Compliance Officer must maintain in fostering a fair and open workplace compliant with evolving societal norms and internal policies.

- JP Morgan’s Return to Office Policy
