SB 657 will make it easier for telecommuting employees to receive required notices from their employer.

During the current COVID-19 crisis, many employers have considered offering employees the opportunity to work from home in the midst of shelter-in-place and stay-at-home orders. Where such telecommuting is possible, it allows employees to remain working and earning income, even during a pandemic or other disruption. With near-record unemployment, we should be doing everything possible to maximize
opportunities for employers to allow telecommuting so that workers can continue to be employed and support themselves and their families.
