Per the Alameda County order, minimum basic operations include "the minimum necessary activities to maintain the value of the business’s inventory, ensure security, process payroll and employee benefits, or for related functions," and "the minimum necessary activities to facilitate employees of the business being able to continue to work remotely from their residences."
The order comes amid a global coronavirus outbreak, with numerous countries around the world implementing stringent measures to curb the outbreak, including closures of borders, suspension of schools, kindergartens and non-essential businesses. In California, about 20% of residents are under "shelter-in-place" orders.
Just days ago, Tesla HR sent a notice to employees, saying the company believes its services are "essential" and that it will continue operations.
