Google emailed the company on Friday about the historic Supreme Court decision reinstating Rowe v. Wade canceled, stating that officials in the affected states could request a move without explaining why.
"This is a major change for the country that has profoundly affected many of us, especially women," Fiona Chiconi, Google's head of human resources, wrote in an email to employees seen by CNBC. "Google employees can also request a move without providing a reason, and those overseeing this process will be aware of the situation."
The note did not say how many requests the company would approve and made no promises. The company is still outsourcing the move to employees who do not wish to return to the physically assigned office due to the company's return to office policy introduced in April.
Cicconi also said he would offer "support sessions" to staff in the coming days.
Google's statement comes as companies across the country, including Amazon and Meta, said they would pay employees to travel to have abortions if they were in an illegal state, following a Supreme Court ruling on Friday.
When the ruling expired, Google said it would grant travel concessions to employees seeking abortion care overseas. In addition, US corporate compensation plans and full-time team member health insurance plans cover non-government healthcare providers not available where employees live and work, Chiconi added in the statement.
When CNBC asked for comment Friday morning, a spokesperson said the company had nothing to add.
