Eligibility for remote work depends on your role, department, and the nature of your job duties. Some positions may require physical presence in the office or have restrictions on remote work. Please discuss with your manager or consult the remote work policy in the employee handbook for specific eligibility criteria.

Your manager will review your request considering team needs and company policies. Approval is subject to periodic review.
Remote workers are expected to maintain the same level of professionalism, productivity, and communication as if they were in the office. This includes adhering to regular working hours, attending virtual meetings, and being accessible via company communication tools. Additionally, you should ensure that your remote work environment is conducive to work and meets safety and confidentiality standards.
Your home office should be a dedicated, quiet space that allows you to work effectively.

Detailed instructions and policies regarding time tracking will be provided during your remote work orientation or can be found in the employee handbook.
When working remotely, you're expected to attend all mandatory meetings via video or teleconference, as applicable. Ensure you're presentable and in a quiet, professional environment for video calls. The company encourages the use of cameras during meetings to foster a more connected and engaged team environment. Scheduling and attendance expectations for meetings will be communicated by your manager or team.
Staying connected with your team involves regular check-ins via video call, instant messaging, and email. Participate actively in team meetings and collaborative projects. The company may also host virtual social events or team-building activities to help remote employees feel part of the team. Additionally, proactive communication with your manager and teammates about your tasks and progress is crucial for effective remote collaboration.
If you experience technical issues with your home office setup or company-provided equipment, contact the IT support team immediately. They can assist with troubleshooting, provide remote support, and advise on any necessary repairs or replacements. Ensure you have an up-to-date list of IT support contacts and procedures for reporting issues.
The company recognizes the importance of work-life balance, especially for remote workers. We encourage you to establish clear boundaries between work and personal time, such as setting regular work hours and taking scheduled breaks.

Eligibility for remote work depends on your role, department, and the nature of your job duties. Some positions may require physical presence in the office or have restrictions on remote work. Please discuss with your manager or consult the remote work policy in the employee handbook for specific eligibility criteria.
To request remote work, submit a formal application through the HR portal, detailing your proposed work schedule, remote work location, and how you plan to ensure productivity and communication with your team. Your manager will review your request considering team needs and company policies. Approval is subject to periodic review.
Remote workers are expected to maintain the same level of professionalism, productivity, and communication as if they were in the office. This includes adhering to regular working hours, attending virtual meetings, and being accessible via company communication tools. Additionally, you should ensure that your remote work environment is conducive to work and meets safety and confidentiality standards.
Your home office should be a dedicated, quiet space that allows you to work effectively. It should be equipped with a reliable internet connection, necessary work equipment (e.g., computer, monitor, keyboard), and ergonomically supportive furniture.

This may include logging start and end times, breaks, and any overtime. Detailed instructions and policies regarding time tracking will be provided during your remote work orientation or can be found in the employee handbook.
When working remotely, you're expected to attend all mandatory meetings via video or teleconference, as applicable. Ensure you're presentable and in a quiet, professional environment for video calls. The company encourages the use of cameras during meetings to foster a more connected and engaged team environment. Scheduling and attendance expectations for meetings will be communicated by your manager or team.
Staying connected with your team involves regular check-ins via video call, instant messaging, and email. Participate actively in team meetings and collaborative projects. The company may also host virtual social events or team-building activities to help remote employees feel part of the team. Additionally, proactive communication with your manager and teammates about your tasks and progress is crucial for effective remote collaboration.
If you experience technical issues with your home office setup or company-provided equipment, contact the IT support team immediately. They can assist with troubleshooting, provide remote support, and advise on any necessary repairs or replacements. Ensure you have an up-to-date list of IT support contacts and procedures for reporting issues.
The company recognizes the importance of work-life balance, especially for remote workers. We encourage you to establish clear boundaries between work and personal time, such as setting regular work hours and taking scheduled breaks.
