[BENGALURU] Alphabet's Google said on Friday it is offering free and weekly at-home Covid-19 testing for all its US employees and plans to expand the benefit globally during the next year.
A Google spokesperson said the company had rolled out the benefit this week for all 90,000 US employees, with the initiative guaranteeing them a weekly, at-home nasal swab and a lab analysis.
The company is recommending every staffer be tested weekly, although it is not mandatory, the spokesperson said.
The news was reported earlier by the Wall Street Journal.
