Telework promotion IT support movement among IT companies April 14 5:27

In response to the demand for promotion of telework in order to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infection, IT companies and other companies are moving to support the introduction of telework.

PC maker Lenovo Japan has begun an initiative to lend out laptops for telework use free of charge to small and medium-sized enterprises with 300 employees or less. Since the company has secured 250 PCs, it is renting up to 5 PCs per company for a maximum of 3 months.

Since some small and medium-sized enterprises are introducing telework for the first time after the spread of the new coronavirus, Lenovo has also set up a contact point for a wide range of consultations. Toll-free number 0120-100-241 is available from 9am to 6pm on weekdays.

On the other hand, Fujitsu offers a free service for three months that allows you to perform the same tasks as from your company's network from home. It aims to prevent employees who work in telework from leaking out confidential information outside, and we would like to support companies that have introduced telework from a security perspective.
