The e-commerce behemoth announced on Friday that starting on May 1, Amazon.com Inc. would mandate that employees work at least three days each week in the office.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, employers began sending workers home to work remotely. Although lockdowns have become less common worldwide, many workers continue to work remotely or in hybrid environments.
CEO Andy Jassy of Amazon stated in a blog post that the decision was made at a meeting earlier this week and that the change will facilitate learning and collaboration. “This shift will provide a boost for the thousands of businesses located around our urban headquarter locations in the Puget Sound, Virginia, Nashville, and the dozens of cities around the world where our employees go to the office,” Jassy wrote.
Customer support roles and salespeople would have the option of working remotely, the corporation stated, so there would be some exceptions to the rule.
In October 2021, Amazon said that it will allow teams to determine how many days a week corporate employees would be expected to work from home.
