GOOGLE EMPLOYEES WORK FROM HOME TILL NEXT YEAR
Google will let employees
work from home until at least July 2021, a company spokesperson said on Monday via Twitter.
By the way, if you are not following me on twitter do follow me....😁😁
According to
reports, the company had previously said most employees would be working
remotely through the end of 2020, with some employees being allowed back into
the office sooner.
But the
decision to extend the remote work policy well into next year indicates that
one of the world's largest tech companies is bracing for a long pandemic - and
could prompt other businesses to follow suit.
In a memo to employees,
Google CEO Sundar Pichai said the company has reopened 42 offices around the
world.
"To give
employees the ability to plan ahead, we'll be extending our global voluntary
work from home option through June 30, 2021 for roles that don't need to be in
the office," Pichai wrote.
"I hope
this will offer the flexibility you need to balance work with taking care of
yourselves and your loved ones over the next 12 months," the CNN report
quoted.
The tech
industry has led the charge on remote work during the coronavirus crisis, with
companies including Twitter and Facebook saying they plan to allow some
employees to continue working remotely indefinitely.
