Amazon wants office workers back 3 days a week in September
The Peninsula
Amazon.com Inc. wants corporate employees to return to the office at least three days a week by this fall, taking a slightly more relaxed stance from its previous position of a return to an "office-centric culture.”
Amazon said it expects office workers in the U.S., U.K. and several other countries to resume working mostly on site the week of Sept. 7, according to an email sent to employees Thursday. Workers can seek exemptions to the rules, which have to be approved. Corporate employees would also have the option of working up to four weeks a year fully remote from a domestic location. "Like all companies and organizations around the world, we’re managing every stage of this pandemic for the first time, learning and evolving as we go,” according to the email. "We’ve been thinking about how to balance our desire to provide flexibility to work from home with our belief that we invent best for customers when we are together in the office.”More Related News
