BGE emailed its roughly 3,100 Baltimore-area employees Aug. 6, informing them of the city’s just-announced plan to reinstate the mask order and its implications for their workplaces, said Aaron Koos, BGE’s vice president of communications. The roughly 40% who are working remotely had planned to return in three phases, with the first 100 coming back after Labor Day, another group 60 days later, and the rest at the beginning of next year.
