My base loc is Bengaluru, but currently I am not mandatorily required to work from office, and have been working from home since I joined Deloitte in July. Should I talk to my manager and go back to my hometown Kolkata and work from there? Staying in PG all day and working from here is not quite feasible for me. Suggest pls. Deloitte India

While discussing the role with HR pre and post the interviews & offer, I had specifically ask the HR to tag me to Ahmedabad location as that's my hometown and I do not wish to relocate. But she has rolled out the offer for Pune location ane verbally ( isn't giving me in writing ) assured me that the location will be flexible. May I know from the fellow Globers if we have location flexibility or WFH option available? Globant India Pv

Yes. Worst case, you're not well enough to work, and your employer should know you may not be available.
You could, but there is literally zero harm. A little courtesy here isn’t a bad thing. The breakthroughs we’ve seen have been largely very mild, but some were still laid up for a few days. We don’t demand to know but the voluntarily disclosure was nice - allowed me to balance deadlines with resource availability.
If you’re working remote and will not be physically in the same location as anyone from your work for the quarantine period, no need to tell anyone.
I believe, unless you had contact with other employees, that under HPPA rules you do not need to disclose you COVID status to your employer.
This is true, I did not disclose, nor do I intend to
Are you 100% remote? If so, then there's technically no need to tell them. Of course, it also depends on how ill you feel. If you think you're able to push through, cool. But if it hits you hard and you feel like you're going to need some rest, obviously you'll want to let them know.
If you are 100% remote, I don’t think you need to tell unless you feel sick / it impacts your ability to work. What difference does it make to them?
You don't have to tell them if you're 100% remote...if there's a chance of coming into the office, interacting with other employees etc, then yes - it's your responsibility to tell them IMO
So sorryy! But if they are understanding they might be a bit easier on you. I know when I was sick I couldn't keep up with work so I had to let my manager know
True! But they can also fire you if you aren't actually getting your stuff done. If you are so sick that you can't, it might be worth it to say something.
Sorry :(
Sorry to hear you caught the virus, mate. If you're 100% remote, then no need to disclose it. If you feel you will be unwell and need time to recover, there's benefit in disclosing
Ughh so sorry. I would report it so you can get some time to recoop.
