Work From Home

If your job doesn’t require you to be present at our premises, you can occasionally work from home (WFH). We normally allow [one day per week.] If you need to telecommute for more days per week, talk to your manager.

Please inform your manager that you want to work from home [using our HRIS] at least [two days] in advance. [You can also set a recurring WFH day per week.] If there’s a rare emergency, you may work from home without having received prior approval, but call or email your manager as soon as possible. If they are in a different time-zone, contact HR instead.

When you are working from home, please use an internet connection and devices that are fast and secure. Choose a place without loud noises or distractions. And, check in with your team frequently to make collaboration easier.

If there is inclement weather (e.g. a blizzard) please check your [email] to see if the office is officially closed. If you judge that your commute during inclement weather is dangerous, let us know. We will not force you to come to work if your safety is at stake or if there is an official travel warning.
