CWA's Health and Safety department has established a process for locals to report on what protections employers have put in place as well as for members to report any incidents of exposure or infection. If you have been exposed to COVID-19 or are experiencing symptoms consistent with infection, contact your healthcare provider immediately and follow reporting procedures established by your employer. Also notify your CWA Local or District as soon as possible. https://cwa-union.org/covid-19?link_id=32&can_id=b0525419035b70bd3662bfb9368336bd&source=email-new-legislation-to-protect-cwa-members-jobs-and-communities&email_referrer=email_816538&email_subject=thanking-our-essential-workers -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20200528151157.GA21219@telecom.csail.mit.edu> Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 15:11:57 +0000 From: Moderator <telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org> Subject: COVID-19 Update: Shadow IT Has Morphed! by Peter Vogel In August 2019 I blogged that "50% of All Businesses Have Shadow IT - So How Are You Impacted?" and now with Covid-19 locking everyone at home Computerworld reported "As workers were forced home due to the COVID-19 crisis, the potential for shadow IT went with them to their remote offices.
