General Motors new workforce guidelines are designed to give employees the flexibility to work from wherever they are most efficient.
General Motors Co. on Tuesday launched a new remote work standard, dubbed Work Appropriately, to reflect adjusted workplace expectations post-pandemic.
The new guideline is designed to give employees the flexibility to work from wherever they are most efficient, GM said, and it gives the Detroit-based automaker access to a broader talent pool beyond its office locations.
After the pandemic forced most employees to work remotely early last year, many have continued to work away from the office. Others, such as manufacturing, lab and warehouse employees, returned to work as soon as safety protocols were in place. Some jobs, such as manufacturing or lab assignments, still must be done in person for the most part, GM said.
