Google instructs East Coast employees to work remotely due to smoky conditions.

Google has advised its employees in New York and other major cities along the East Coast to work from home due to the unhealthy air quality caused by the smoke from wildfires in Canada. The company has also issued advisory notices to workers in other cities, including Detroit, Washington, D.C., Reston, Virginia, Pittsburgh, Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, Toronto, and Waterloo. Google has set up internal resources to provide information about wildfires and air filtering. The company has assured its employees that its HVAC and air filtration systems maintain high-quality air inside its offices even in these circumstances.
