Google doesn’t want its employees to return to office by January 2022
India Today
Google employees are not expected to return to the office by January 10. The company has pushed the deadline but not come up with a new date as yet.
Google will reportedly delay its return-to-office plans for employees. The company had previously asked the US employees to return to the office by January 10, 2022. However, Google has currently put the plan on hold and will now come up with new plans regarding the return to the office, an email sent to employees revealed.
As per CNBC, Google’s security VP, Chris Rackow, informed the US employees that they will wait for the new year to assess whether the employees can return to the office or not. The email revealed that none of the US offices will adapt the hybrid work model that required the employees to return to office by January 10. The hybrid work plan required the employees to return to the office atleast three days a week. However, the company has now delayed the decision amid growing concerns over the new Covid variant found in South Africa. The said variant is speculated to be more fatal than the previous variants and can even bypass the vaccine immunity.
