A memo circulating inside Google accuses the company of not protecting its army of contract workers from the coronavirus pandemic

and start reading now.

"When it comes to our 'extended workforce,' Google and its contracting agencies are falling short," the memo authors wrote. On Tuesday, a list of demands written by Google workers began circulating internally that calls for better protections for contract workers at the $772 billion company and asks for greater clarity over Google's policies, Business Insider has learned.

Google has around 119,000 employees throughout the world — and a similar number of temporary workers, contractors, and external vendors . Google's policies on TVCs have proved immensely contentious over the last few years, with critics complaining they amount to a "second-class" workforce denied the perks and privileges afforded to proper Google employees.

The memo highlighted the office in Pittsburgh, which has contract workers from HCL: "Workers who are contracted through HCL were expected to come into work this week, despite Pittsburgh declaring a state of emergency, closing its schools, and urging non-essential businesses to close." "Google has promised that if offices close, workers without remote access will be compensated for the hours they would have worked. But offices have not closed ... TVCs are increasingly being forced to chose between risking infection by going to work, or losing wages."
