It is important to us that we leave things better than we found them, do the right thing, and serve as a partner to the people and communities we serve. We are dedicated to providing support to our communities where we live and work. That is why last year, we invested over $2 million from the Bank’s Corporate Giving program and grant-making through the Bangor Savings Bank Foundation.

Guest Host:

Tawny Alvarez
Partner
Verrill Dana

7 Dwarfs of Work –

Tawny is a partner in Verrill Dana’s labor and employment practice group. She believes that a company’s culture defines its business and prides herself on assisting clients comply with the law, while simultaneously creating an amazing place to work.

Tawny centers her practice on the understanding that the employment landscape is ever-changing and that many organizations do not have the time or resources to keep abreast of all of these changes—from medical (and recreational) marijuana’s effect on drug testing, to the effect of social networking in the workplace and mobile devices’ effect on wage and hour issues. In this evolving landscape she recognizes that for companies to remain profitable and successful they must be proactive, as opposed to reactive, to these employment issues.
