Google pushes return to office to September, 2021

Google has pushed back its return to the office until September and will experiment with a hybrid model allowing some employees to work from home part of the week due to the spread of coronavirus.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai emailed employees Sunday about plans to test a flexible workweek once conditions are safe for people to return, Report says, citing TASS.

Google employees would work three days in the office and the rest of the week at home under the new plan.

Pichai said the company is testing whether such a model would lead to greater productivity and employee well-being. “No company at our scale has ever created a fully hybrid workforce model — though a few are starting to test it — so it will be interesting to try,” Pichai wrote.
