ServiceNow is committing to protect the jobs of its 11,000-plus global workforce through 2020 despite the economic uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company also expects to keep hiring for new jobs worldwide this year. In addition, ServiceNow expects to continue to protect the jobs and salaries of several hundred support staff and contractors who are not working while ServiceNow’s offices remain closed.
ServiceNow has continued to hire and onboard new employees throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The company expects to create and fill more than 1,000 new jobs in the U.S., and more worldwide, by the end of 2020. Additionally, this summer the company will welcome approximately 360 college interns from around the world to work across its business. As a digital workflow company, ServiceNow has been able to quickly pivot to a digital internship program, maintaining the ability to provide college interns valuable career experience, even if employees continue to operate in a work-from-home environment. ServiceNow’s employees worldwide have been working from home since mid-March and expect to continue to do so until June 1.
Additionally, ServiceNow, along with Accenture, Lincoln Financial Group, and Verizon, this week announced People+Work Connect, a collaborative online employer-to employer initiative that will bring together companies with workforces laid off or furloughed due to COVID-19 with those in urgent need of workers. More than 800 ServiceNow jobs will be posted through this collaborative effort. At no charge for employers to join and participate, the initiative is intended to help shorten the complex, lengthy cycle of finding new employment.

Helping Customers Respond to COVID-19
ServiceNow is continuing to work aggressively to support its customers during this challenging time, including helping local, state and federal agencies better manage and coordinate emergency response efforts by utilizing ServiceNow’s digital workflow platform technology and no-charge COVID-19 emergency response applications.
Washington State’s Department of Health, a ServiceNow customer, initially created the Emergency Response Operations app on the Now Platform to manage their own response to COVID-19. Working with ServiceNow, the Department of Health has made the app available to all government entities at no charge.
In addition to the State of Washington’s Emergency Response Operations app, ServiceNow recently developed and introduced three, no-charge community apps: Emergency Outreach App, Emergency Self Report App and Emergency Exposure Management app. These community apps are part of a broader Customer Care Plan launched by ServiceNow in March to support its customers as they focus on maintaining business operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Examples of organizations leveraging ServiceNow to support their COVID-19 efforts include:
- The City of Los Angeles, which was able to implement drive-through COVID-19 testing using the Now Platform. Within 48 hours of deployment, the City pushed their portal live to 16 million citizens who can now research and verify symptoms, schedule an appointment and choose a drive-through testing location.
- The Calgary Catholic School District, which used the Now Platform to enable staff with links to critical information for a seamless, rapid transition from teaching in the classroom to educating from home. This continued student learning was made possible because of the simplified employee experience made available to their teacher
- A US retail company, that was able to rapidly respond to the influx of human resources cases for emergency paid leave requests due to COVID-19 by using the Now Platform. Within 96 hours, a mobile application was built and deployed to 330,000 employees globally.
- A large City in the U.S., which deployed an application on the Now Platform to assist 1.8 million of its citizens in need of food and distribution of other necessities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
More information about ServiceNow’s customer care plan, including accessing the community apps, can be found at servicenow.com/crisisresponse.
ServiceNow and its employees also have committed $1.5 million in cash donations to help COVID-19 response efforts. ServiceNow will make $1.225 million in corporate grants to the United Nations Foundation; the Centers for Disease Control Foundation; the NYC Mayor’s COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund; the Silicon Valley Community Foundation COVID-19 Coronavirus Response Funds; and Second Harvest of Silicon Valley. Employee matching gift campaigns will raise additional funds to benefit non-profits in the local communities where our employees live and work.
