Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey addressed his staff earlier today that those who wish to continue to work from home will be allowed to do so, as long as they see fit. The internet entrepreneur announced his plans via a company-wide email.

A spokesperson for Twitter has since confirmed Dorsey's decision, noting:

"...if our employees are in a role and situation that enables them to work from home and they want to continue to do so forever, we will make that happen. If not, our offices will be their warm and welcoming selves, with some additional precautions, when we feel it's safe to return."

Dorsey's decision follows San Francisco Mayor London Breed's announcement that the city would be extending its stay at home orders through the end of May. California Governor Gavin Newsom, meanwhile, decided that some restrictions will be laxed.

However, Twitter is taking the safe route toward returning to work -- allowing some of its employees to work remotely is one of the advantages huge tech companies only can afford. Chief HR Officer Jennifer Christie has laid out Twitter's plans, including when Twitter will open its offices and allow employees to resume in-office work, noting that it will be their decision.

Twitter plans to open its officers after the month of September, but with very few exceptions. Upon opening its offices, regular work will not resume as is. According to Christie, it will be "careful, intentional, office by office, and gradual."

Business travels won't be allowed before September and there will be no company events for the rest of the year. Events for 2021, meanwhile, will be assessed later in 2020. Things are subject to change though, the HR officer said.

Other tech companies, including Google and Facebook, have extended their work from home policies as well. Twitter's approach is particularly accommodating for a company of its size. What that means for the future of Twitter's San Francisco HQ and other offices, however, remains to be seen.

As has been the case with most companies, Twitter employees have been working from home to help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. Last week, Facebook and Google said they'll allow most of their employees to work from home through the end of this year. The decisions by some of the largest companies in Silicon Valley offer a glimpse into how the rest of the tech industry may plan to reopen in the coming months.
