  • What Resources Will I Need to Telework?
    Office of Enterprise Technology MDH Pandemic Telework Resource Guide This guide will assist you to answer these telework-related questions: ● What resources will I need to telework? ● What systems will I need to access as they telework? ● What computer and network resources will I need? ● How do I set up my home and work computer for teleworking? ● What forms will I need to read and sign to confirm my telework responsibilities, including how to keep MDH information, network, systems and computers safe while I work? ● Who can I call to get answers to telework questions? The ongoing response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Maryland will require some of us to work remotely. In order to contain the spread, the State has implemented Level II - Flexible ​ ​ ​ Operations as outlined in the Pandemic Flu and Other Infectious Diseases Attendance and ​ Leave Policy. ​ It is important to work with and communicate directly with your managers and supervisors to understand the expectations of teleworking and what you are expected to do away from the office. This document also provides links to resources, forms, and support to help you telework successfully. We will also provide information to obtain remote access and where to go for support. Telework and Computer Use Agreements We recommend, prior to teleworking, you read and sign the Interim Pandemic-Associated ​ Teleworking Agreement, even if you have signed copy of the standard telework agreement on ​ file. Employees are also required to follow the Maryland Computer Use Agreement which you ​ ​ signed when you were hired. Security Staff who have been issued laptops, tablets, or phones by MDH are less at risk in handling sensitive data, communications and private material than those who will telework using their personal devices.
