"People are already decidedly on edge as the most contentious and high-stakes election season in memory...Whether they're worried about the economy, inflation, the impact of AI, their access to issues like child care or their overall rights, everyone's worried about something-and it's not whether that report gets finished on Tuesday."
"Managers are in the unenviable role of trying to quiet election anxiety and keep people focused. Doing so will require acknowledging their workers' feelings (not their politics), creating an open and respectful dialogue, building community, and setting healthy boundaries."

"At the very least, make sure people have the time off to vote."
