Facebook will not let employees return to office without COVID-19 booster 

Facebook had earlier planned to reopen the office by January 31. However, the date has now been pushed to March 28 due to a surge in Omicron cases.

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has delayed its return to office plans. Not only has Facebook delayed its plans of calling the employees back in the office. The Meta-owned company has also made the booster shot mandatory. Facebook had earlier planned to reopen the office by January 31. However, the date has now been pushed to March 28 due to surge in Omicron cases.

Facebook had earlier announced an office deferral program that gives the flexibility to employees to return to the office. So for people who opt to work from office, the new reopening date is March 28 and not January 31 as decided earlier. "We recognize that some employees aren't quite ready to come back. We continue to offer a variety of options to choose what works best for them, so our employees can make informed decisions about where they work," said Janelle Gale, vice president, human resources of the company.
