Facebook’s Workplace launches range of new features, including tool for drafting exec comms

Facebook has unveiled new features for Workplace – the social media giant’s version of internal collaboration tools like Slack – in response to COVID-19, including a knowledge library, a tool for drafting executive communications, and safety alerts.

The platform said the new tools are focused on information sharing and employee wellbeing. The safety alert function, for example, allows organisations to send standalone incident alerts to keep employees safe.
