Amazon.com Inc on Thursday said it would not expect US corporate employees to return to the office until next year because of the coronavirus pandemic. The Seattle-based company said it was extending its work-from-home period to January 3, 2022, from its earlier guidance of September 7 for the United States and other countries it did not name, according to an internal note seen by Reuters. "As we continue to closely watch local conditions related to COVID-19, we are adjusting our guidance for corporate employees," the note said. Amazon told Reuters its employees' health was its top priority and it will keep adhering to local government guidance for a safe office return. It said it will require masks in offices except for staff who verify they are fully vaccinated.More Related News
