I'm not sure about denormalize full-time jobs, but normalizing WFH is a good thing. It does require different practices though.
Our company has a ton of training material on managing remote teams, and due to high demand because of the virus, we decided to make our eBook on "Managing Remote Teams" free. Maybe we can help ease the transition for teams moving to WFH.
The 60+ pages book is the result of months of research and interviews with successful remote companies (it’s usually a part of our paid product). We collected tips on pretty much everything, from onboarding to communication best-practices, to tools you should consider.

A "no" can appear to be anything between an unemphatic response to a request to assistance to outright defiance.
This seems like a good opportunity to practice the power of assuming positive intent?
