Twitter Inc. escalated its coronavirus response by mandating that all employees must work from home, having previously only recommended the practice.

推特公司(Twitter Inc.)加强了对冠状病毒的应对措施，规定所有员工必须在家工作，此前该公司只是建议员工在家工作。

We are moving beyond our earlier guidance of “strongly encouraging work from home” provided on March 2 and have now informed all employees globally they must work from home.

我们正在超越3月2日发布的“强烈鼓励在家工作”的早期指导，现在已经通知全球所有员工必须在家工作。

We understand this is an unprecedented step, but these are unprecedented times, Twitter said.

我们知道这是前所未有的一步，但现在也是前所未有的时代。”

The company has more than 35 offices around the world, with its Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea locations already put on mandatory remote work due in part to government restrictions. As it expands the policy to its global workforce, Twitter said it will continue to pay contractors and hourly-wage workers to cover standard working hours during the disruption. Twitter will also offer all employees, including hourly workers, receive reimbursement toward their home office set up expenses.

Microsoft Corp. and others have committed to pay hourly workers unable to do their on-site jobs and are also urging those who can to switch to working remotely.

微软(Microsoft Corp.)等公司已承诺向无法在现场工作的小时工支付工资，并敦促那些有能力的人改用远程工作。
