Facebook employees will work at least until the end of the year. The Company has rejected its plans to return to the Office employees because of concerns about rising COVID cases due to the Delta variant. The company said earlier this summer that it had planned to reopen American offices at a capacity of 50% by September. But this calendar has now been postponed to January as cases increased.
“The data, not the dates, that’s what drives our approach to return to the office,” said the company in a statement to the CNBC. “Given the recent health data showing the increase in COVID cases based on the Delta variant, our teams in the United States will not be required to return to the office before January 20, 2022. We expect this to be the Cases for some countries outside the United States, as well as. We continue to monitor the situation and work with experts so that our return to office plans gives priority to the safety of everyone. “
Facebook has made Facebook titles at the beginning of 2020 to be among the first to close off its offices, well before many regions have put in place their own Lockdowns policies. The company also stated that it would require that its US employees are vaccinated against COVID-19. Whenever it is re-opened, it is likely that work was alike and will feel very different from many employees. The company stated that it embraces remote work, with Mark Zuckerberg saying that over 50% of the company’s workforce could distinguish within 5 to 10 years.
