In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Elastic has implemented several measures to ensure the safety and well-being of its employees while maintaining operational continuity. All in-person events, including leadership offsites and ElasticOn Tours, have been transitioned to virtual formats, with plans to further virtualize community interactions and workshops. The company has mandated global remote work from March 13 to March 27, emphasizing its distributed work model and offering a home working allowance to facilitate employees' transition. Additionally, travel has been restricted in line with local guidelines, and a specific time-off category has been introduced for non-illness-related absences due to COVID-19, such as school closures. Public in-facility training sessions have shifted to virtual formats, and employees are encouraged to stay informed through a dedicated email and Slack channel.
