"For employers who are embracing remote work as part of a long-term strategy, [Field Assistance Bulletin 2020-7] is welcome news. Here are some practical considerations for employers taking that approach: [1] Consider designing an easily accessible space in your company intranet or employee portal for federal and state posters. [2] Consider making your company intranet/portal appear automatically on employees' computers upon logging in. [3] If you have multiple groups of employees, covered by different laws (e.g., a group involved in government contracts, or groups in different states), ensure that each group can tell which posters are applicable."
