City of London says bulk of workers will return to the office after pandemic

LONDON: The City of London financial centre, which has resembled a ghost town since the coronavirus swept the world last year, is likely to see most workers return to their offices after the pandemic, the City’s political leader said.

Catherine McGuinness, policy chair at the City of London Corporation, told BBC radio she was confident that trade would return for the cafes, restaurants and other businesses that rely on the usually teeming crowds of office workers. But there would probably be changes to the way people work as a result of the pandemic.
