The devastating wildfires in California, spanning at least 45 square miles and destroying 1,300 properties, have forced TikTok employees in LA to work from home due to their office closure caused by power outages. Despite this, affected workers are required to use personal/sick days if unable to work remotely, leaving them with limited time off. TikTok enforces a three-day office mandate and offers 10 paid sick days and 15 vacation days annually, but lacks flexibility for employees facing challenges. The company emphasizes employee safety and well-being, supporting remote work while acknowledging the difficulties posed by the situation. Concerns regarding the lack of flexibility and use of limited time off have been raised. TechRadar Pro sought additional context from TikTok, but no immediate response was received.
