THE local unit of business process outsourcing firm Transcom Worldwide AB has laid down the work arrangement for employees during the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine.
“Transcom has many selfless employees camping in on our sites as well as local accommodation as prescribed and in strict accordance with the DTI (Department of Trade and Industry), DoLE (Department of Labor and Employment) and City Government directives throughout the lockdown,” said Mark Lyndsell, chief executive officer of Transcom Global English Region.
The government ordered the lockdown on March 16 until April 12, 2020.
“In the course of the last few days we have also moved many hundreds of our employees to work at home,” Mr. Lyndsell said.
“All those working whether on site or from home will be paid as normal during the lockdown,” he added.
Mr. Lyndsell said for those not camping in, the company has authorized the payment of pre-planned time off in accordance with the directives from the Labor department.
