TikTok Employees in LA Advised to Use Personal Days Amid Wildfire Crisis
As wildfires ravage Los Angeles, TikTok has instructed its LA staff to either work from home or utilize their personal/sick days if unable to do so due to power outages or evacuation orders. The office, closed until January 12, is not under mandatory evacuation, but employees face severe disruptions. Many homes are without power or Wi-Fi, affecting their ability to work. TikTok's PSSL policy does not explicitly cover natural disasters, raising concerns about employee welfare during this crisis. Staff are urged to prioritize safety while managing their time off amidst these challenging conditions.
