Publicis CEO Arthur Sadoun has recorded a video message to the network’s employees underlining his concern for their safety and encouraging them to work from home.
The video, titled “Taking Care Together,” was issued on Sunday, and came after France issued new orders for the shutdown of schools, bars, restaurants and non-essential stores. In it, Sadoun said that employees should try to work from home, although most offices will still be open, and he urged staff to use videoconferencing as much as they can.
Sadoun also referred to a dedicated email account to which Publicis employees can address their questions and concerns; although there was no mention of employee AI platform Marcel (and the company did not respond to questions on how it could play a part in the response.)
