Starting in the month of May, Amazon conside that the employees to take at least three days off each week to spend away from the workplace. The corporation unveiled the approach in a document that was issued on Friday and was ascribed to Chief Executive Officer Andy Jassy (via CNN). 

According to Jassy, in favour of the regulation, that a hybrid work arrangement would "strengthen" Amazon's corporate culture and foster greater employee cooperation. This was her justification for allowing hybrid work arrangements. it would not be an easy to bring thousands of people back to the offices throughout the globe, so we'll give the teams who need to conduct that task some time to design a strategy. We are aware that it will not be perfect right away; however, as our real estate and facilities teams continue to iron out the kinks and ultimately keep evolving how offices to be set up to work, the office experience will gradually get better over the course of the upcoming months. 

Amazon made an announcement not long after the COVID-19 pandemic, and it said that the company thought employees will return to work in October of 2020. This timetable kept being pushed back by the office as fresh waves of the coronavirus caused cities all around the globe to go into lockdown. Activision, the parent company of Blizzard Entertainment, has confirmed that starting in July, workers of Blizzard would be called for the office attendence at least three days each week. The date of Amazon's announcement aligns with this news. 

Amazon has had a situation quite similar to that which has occurred at Blizzard, in which a significant number of workers have organised in order to criticise the practises of the company. JFK8, a facility on Staten Island, was the first Amazon workhouse to be unionised. It gained notoriety when the majority of its workers voted to unionise in the previous year. JFK8 is known as "the first unionised Amazon workhouse." The decision was made in response to an announcement by Amazon at the beginning of the year stating that the company will be laying off more than 18,000 employees.
