New York accounting-advisory firm PKF O’Connor Davies, which has offices in Wethersfield and Fairfield County, said its employees will be allowed to work from home for the rest of 2020 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
PKF, which has more than 900 employees across 12 offices in five states, said it’s one of the first employers in the accounting-advisory industry to extend remote work through year’s end.
While the voluntary policy allows for remote working, the company said it also “provides the resources and space for valuable in-person meetings with clients and colleagues” at offices and other locations.
“The health and safety of our employees is our top priority,” Kevin J. Keane, PKF’s managing partner, said in a statement. “We transitioned to remote operations to protect all of our employees as the risks associated with COVID-19 grew. I’m proud to say that transition was flawless, and our company culture and commitment to clients has not skipped a beat. This pilot program gives longtime employees and new hires alike the flexibility to work in a way that’s best for their families and for their peace of mind.”
PKF was the 29th largest accounting firm by revenue on Accounting Today’s most recent annual top 100 ranking, with nearly $166 million in 2018 revenue.
