For Google's future of work, some people will stay working completely remotely; however, the vast majority of workers will be coming in about three days a week
, Google CEO Sundar Pichai offered his thought process for asking people to leave the comfort of their homes to return to an office setting. Pichai said that he is most excited that the future of work will be flexible. He maintains that it's important to get people together in an office environment for at least a few days a week.
Google will be open to all options. There will be some people who will completely work remotely; however, the vast majority of workers will be coming in about three days a week. Once they are in the office, it will be purposeful—and not just for facetime. This will include meetings, collaborating with colleagues in other divisions, conducting brainstorming sessions, meeting with clients and vendors and community building.
According to the email from John Casey, Google vice president of global benefits, everyone coming to the office must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 or have an approved exemption. Unvaccinated workers without an exemption will be given an option to seek one or apply for permanent remote work. Fully vaccinated workers will not have to wear masks in Bay Area offices.
