Schools are closing, offices are closing – pushing employees to be home whether they are able to work remotely or not. Companies that have cloud business technology and a foundation set up for a mobile workforce or remote workforce are encouraging employees to work from home if they can, in order to help prevent the spread and possible contraction of the coronavirus.
