TOKYO -- Japan's vast NTT conglomerate will maintain the ratio of teleworking employees at 50% or higher for about 280 of its companies after June, Nikkei learned on Thursday.

The move by the country's largest telecommunications concern comes after the government lifted the state of emergency on Monday.
