Major US companies are joining a crusade to give workers time off to vote on Nov. 3.
Apple to Salesforce, here are all the tech companies that are onboard.
Even in pre-pandemic times, US voter turnout was low. This year, the coronavirus pandemic will make voting even more challenging, with the US facing a potential shortage of poll workers and many voters nervous about voting by mail.
Now, corporate America is responding in order to help increase voter turnout.
Hundreds of major firms have instituted new policies in order to encourage their workers to vote, or to help out at their local polling places. Many of these companies have joined the "Time To Vote" movement, an organization whose goal is to increase voter turnout by making it easier for US workers to find time to vote.
Retail companies have led the way in encouraging their employees to become poll workers, and now tech companies are responding in kind.
