Our response to the COVID-19 pandemic

As a global company, we've felt each wave of the COVID-19 pandemic as it traveled around the world and affected the communities where we live and work. We've mourned for family, friends, coworkers, and strangers - a bond of loss we never wished to share.

The safety of our employees and their families remains our top priority. At the start of the pandemic, we transitioned everyone possible to a remote workforce and provided PPE and COVID support for employees who needed to work onsite. 

We've created a voluntary return to office (RTO) plan with guidelines and precautions to ensure our employees, clients, and partners conduct business while remaining safe and have the following COVID-19 Care support initiatives with the help of volunteers throughout the company and partner organizations:
