Facebook will now let all of its full-time employees work from home according to the current communication from the CEO. With the pandemic that has been looming, many companies have resorted to working from home or remotely for those whose work could be. Facebook, which had allowed certain categories of people will now allow full-time employees as long as their jobs can be done remotely.
“We’ve learned over the past year that good work can get done anywhere, and I’m even more optimistic that remote work at scale is possible, particularly as remote video presence and virtual reality continue to improve,” Zuckerberg wrote in a memo.
Zuckerberg also said Facebook will begin allowing employees to request remote work across international borders. After next Tuesday, the company will allow U.S. employees to request remote work in Canada and those in Europe to request remote work in the U.K., a Facebook spokesperson said. In January 2022, the company will allow employees to permanently move between seven countries in Europe.
With over 60,000 employees, Facebook plans to open its U.S offices at 50% capacity by early September and full capacity by October.
