Enabling remote work, a message from Microsoft on the COVID-19

With COVID-19 impacting people around the world, organizations everywhere are pivoting to remote work and putting the safety of their employees, customers, and communities first.

 

Microsoft is committed as a company to making public health our first priority and doing what we can to address the economic and societal impact of COVID-19.

 

In addition, we recognize the vital role that our technology plays in supporting people and organizations each day, today, and in the long term. As such, we’ve put together initial guidance to help you enable remote work, so your employees have access to the tools, resources, and expertise they need in this challenging time.

All in all, your Microsoft account team is here to support you with any help you may need with your remote work.
