Google approved 85% of remote work requests

Google has approved 85% of the estimated 10,000 relocation and remote work requests that it received from employees last July 2.
The search engine firm sent out its first round of responses last Tuesday noting that each application went through several reviews that included “fairness checks at three stages of the process.”
In an interview with Insider, a Google representative said that for some of the requests, “we need more information to make sure we can legally and administratively support each role in the preferred location… It’s possible that some may be declined if we’re unable to do so.”
A tool was introduced by the global corporation last June to help their employees request transfers or full remote work.
The company recently moved its plan to return to its offices to October 18 in light of the rising COVID-19 Delta variant cases globally. It also raised a vaccination mandate for all of its staffers worldwide.
