New Delhi: Twitter Inc has become the first major tech company to allow employees who can work remotely to do so indefinitely, as the coronavirus outbreak forces unprecedented changes in work culture across the world, reported BuzzFeed on Tuesday.

“The past few months have proven we can make that work. So if our employees are in a role and situation that enables them to work from home and they want to continue to do so forever, we will make that happen,” the micro-blogging platform said in a statement late on Tuesday.

“If not, our offices will be their warm and welcoming selves, with some additional precautions, when we feel it’s safe to return,” it added.

“With very few exceptions, offices won’t open before September. When we do decide to open offices, it also won’t be a snap back to the way it was before. It will be careful, intentional, office by office and gradual,” informed Twitter.

The company said that there will be no business travel before September, with very few exceptions, and no in-person company events for the rest of 2020.

“We will assess 2021 events later this year,” it said.
