NEW YORK--()--The blizzard sweeping across the North East, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions has left many unable to reach their offices. A snow day may be a thrill for elementary schoolers and adults, however many employees still need to work despite being unable to travel to their offices. Working from home is an option for many, but with the kids cooped up all day, it may not be the most productive work environment. For travelers stranded in another city, having a professional workspace may be essential.

What: Regus invites employees in the North East, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest areas who are unable to travel to their offices to use a Regus business lounge at the location nearest to them free of charge for the rest of the week. Just present your business card and enjoy a full day of uninterrupted productivity.
