The 桃花社区视频 of Virginia requires that all employees with state email addresses and state phone numbers include contact information in their email signature, which shall include, at a minimum, an office phone number and/or state cell phone number.
This requirement seeks to improve accessibility to employees, including those who work remotely. Please view your email signature as an electronic business card. It upholds an identity standard, and email signatures should follow the same conventions.
