Zoom requires employees to get back to the office
Zoom, the company whose videoconferencing tool allowed millions of employees to work from home during the global COVID pandemic, is mandating that its workers return to the office.
“We believe that a structured hybrid approach – meaning a set number of days employees that live near an office need to be onsite– is most effective for Zoom,” the company said in a statement, adding that Zoom will “continue to leverage the entire Zoom platform to keep our employees and dispersed teams connected and working efficiently.”
According to a report from Business Insider, Zoom is requiring employees who live near one of the company’s offices — a distance the company is defining as within 50 miles — to be physically present in the office twice a week.
