COUNTRY FOCUS: SPAIN
“
A GLOBAL HEALTH
EMERGENCY
MAKES
CONNECTIVITY
ABSOLUTELY
ESSENTIAL.
Spain has an ultra-broadband
communication infrastructure of
extremely high capacity and quality
and Telefónica aims to ensure that the
telecommunications network works at full

capacity in a reliable, stable and secure
way. It intends to do the same in all the
countries it operates, working to provide its
networks with sufficient capacity to absorb
the most demanding peaks.
Telefonica and working from home
Within the process of Digital Transformation
in which we are immersed, Telefónica has the
ambition to be a benchmark in new forms
of work, flexible models and balancing work
and home life by taking advantage of its
digital capabilities and tools.
This commitment allows the company
to react effectively to a crisis such as this
one by promoting working from home in
all areas of the company and especially
among risk groups.
For all these reasons, while all educational
activities remain suspended in certain
areas of Spain, the company has decided
to facilitate and promote remote working
for all Telefónica employees in Spain,
placing special emphasis on those
colleagues with school-age children and on
groups at risk. This is in addition to the rest
of the measures Telefónica has
already taken throughout the company
regarding trip cancellations, promotion
of flexible working days and working
remotely, limits to meetings and events
and adoption of basic prevention and
hygiene measures.
