Apple will give its employees at least a month's warning before mandating a return to offices, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing internal policy.\nChief executive officer Tim Cook said in June that employees should begin returning to offices in early September for at least three days a week. In an internal memo, Cook cited the availability of vaccinations and declining infection rates. Some employees of the Cupertino, California-based technology giant have worked from Apple offices on certain days throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.\nYet even with half the US vaccinated, Covid-19 continues to kill people faster than guns, car crashes and influenza combined, according to a Bloomberg review of mortality data. After 10 weeks of global declines in Covid deaths, the highly transmissible delta variant is driving a new uptick. In the US, health officials have warned that a similar reversal may be underway: Daily cases have doubled from a low point last month, and hospitalisations are rising again.\nCorporations across the globe are grappling with how to adjust to shifting work demands in the post-Covid era. Apple's decision comes as its own employees criticised the September deadline as too early.\nEven before Covid, the company had grappled with a potential loss of talent as workers - despite being relatively high earners - complain they can barely afford the extraordinary cost of living in the San Francisco Bay Area. Just a few years after completing the multibillion-dollar Apple Park headquarters in Cupertino, California, Apple is now ramping up efforts to decentralise out of Silicon Valley.\nIn the tech industry, many workers have come to view remote work as a coveted perk. Several Silicon Valley companies have been bringing workers back to the office only slowly. Facebook has said it will drastically expand the number of employees who can work remotely even after the pandemic - although their salaries may be adjusted based on their location. And Alphabet's Google recently introduced a more permissive return-to-work policy that allows for staff to work from different locations or entirely from home.\nSeparately, Apple is said to be testing a hybrid in-store and work-from-home arrangement for retail employees, acknowledging that consumers may continue to prefer online shopping even as the pandemic eases.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":178096688,"gmtCreate":1626770375244,"gmtModify":1703764861665,"author":{"id":"3583737232394956","authorId":"3583737232394956","name":"TeddyBeh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d76007db84597ca100fd1bfc2152e60c","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3583737232394956","authorIdStr":"3583737232394956"},"htmlText":"Cool.

Apple will give its employees at least a month's warning before mandating a return to offices, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing internal policy.\nChief executive officer Tim Cook said in June that employees should begin returning to offices in early September for at least three days a week.

Apple will give its employees at least a month's warning before mandating a return to offices, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing internal policy.\nChief executive officer Tim Cook said in June that employees should begin returning to offices in early September for at least three days a week. In an internal memo, Cook cited the availability of vaccinations and declining infection rates. Some employees of the Cupertino, California-based technology giant have worked from Apple offices on certain days throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.\nYet even with half the US vaccinated, Covid-19 continues to kill people faster than guns, car crashes and influenza combined, according to a Bloomberg review of mortality data. After 10 weeks of global declines in Covid deaths, the highly transmissible delta variant is driving a new uptick. In the US, health officials have warned that a similar reversal may be underway: Daily cases have doubled from a low point last month, and hospitalisations are rising again.\nCorporations across the globe are grappling with how to adjust to shifting work demands in the post-Covid era. Apple's decision comes as its own employees criticised the September deadline as too early.\nEven before Covid, the company had grappled with a potential loss of talent as workers - despite being relatively high earners - complain they can barely afford the extraordinary cost of living in the San Francisco Bay Area. Just a few years after completing the multibillion-dollar Apple Park headquarters in Cupertino, California, Apple is now ramping up efforts to decentralise out of Silicon Valley.\nIn the tech industry, many workers have come to view remote work as a coveted perk. Several Silicon Valley companies have been bringing workers back to the office only slowly. Facebook has said it will drastically expand the number of employees who can work remotely even after the pandemic - although their salaries may be adjusted based on their location. And Alphabet's Google recently introduced a more permissive return-to-work policy that allows for staff to work from different locations or entirely from home.\nSeparately, Apple is said to be testing a hybrid in-store and work-from-home arrangement for retail employees, acknowledging that consumers may continue to prefer online shopping even as the pandemic eases.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":171733487,"gmtCreate":1626762915849,"gmtModify":1703764728028,"author":{"id":"3555000456336821","authorId":"3555000456336821","name":"gamerxyj","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ca581741e24428089f21c4e11ff275c","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3555000456336821","authorIdStr":"3555000456336821"},"htmlText":"Chance to buy ?&nbsp;","listText":"Chance to buy ?&nbsp;","text":"Chance to buy ?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/171733487","repostId":2152669520,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152669520","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626761718,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2152669520?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-20 14:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple delays office return by at least a month as Covid spikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152669520","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"(BLOOMBERG) - Apple is pushing back its return to office deadline by at least a month to October at ","content":"<div>\n<p>(BLOOMBERG) - Apple is pushing back its return to office deadline by at least a month to October at the earliest, responding to a resurgence of Covid variants across many countries, people familiar ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/business/apple-delays-office-return-by-at-least-a-month-as-covid-spikes\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Apple will give its employees at least a month's warning before mandating a return to offices, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing internal policy.\nChief executive officer Tim Cook said in June that employees should begin returning to offices in early September for at least three days a week. In an internal memo, Cook cited the availability of vaccinations and declining infection rates. Some employees of the Cupertino, California-based technology giant have worked from Apple offices on certain days throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.\nYet even with half the US vaccinated, Covid-19 continues to kill people faster than guns, car crashes and influenza combined, according to a Bloomberg review of mortality data. After 10 weeks of global declines in Covid deaths, the highly transmissible delta variant is driving a new uptick. In the US, health officials have warned that a similar reversal may be underway: Daily cases have doubled from a low point last month, and hospitalisations are rising again.\nCorporations across the globe are grappling with how to adjust to shifting work demands in the post-Covid era. Apple's decision comes as its own employees criticised the September deadline as too early.\nEven before Covid, the company had grappled with a potential loss of talent as workers - despite being relatively high earners - complain they can barely afford the extraordinary cost of living in the San Francisco Bay Area. Just a few years after completing the multibillion-dollar Apple Park headquarters in Cupertino, California, Apple is now ramping up efforts to decentralise out of Silicon Valley.\nIn the tech industry, many workers have come to view remote work as a coveted perk. Several Silicon Valley companies have been bringing workers back to the office only slowly. Facebook has said it will drastically expand the number of employees who can work remotely even after the pandemic - although their salaries may be adjusted based on their location. And Alphabet's Google recently introduced a more permissive return-to-work policy that allows for staff to work from different locations or entirely from home.\nSeparately, Apple is said to be testing a hybrid in-store and work-from-home arrangement for retail employees, acknowledging that consumers may continue to prefer online shopping even as the pandemic eases.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":5270333,"gmtCreate":1626762321850,"gmtModify":1663231205328,"authorId":3582669260096336,"author":{"id":3582669260096336,"idStr":"3582669260096336","authorId":3582669260096336,"name":"Sud123","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bc1a5612accc650c132766cc78482ffa","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":171798330,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"Yo [Smart]","text":"Yo [Smart]","html":"Yo [Smart]"},{"id":5270332,"gmtCreate":1626762301454,"gmtModify":1663231205048,"authorId":3575517733011286,"author":{"id":3575517733011286,"idStr":"3575517733011286","authorId":3575517733011286,"name":"UpUpUpUpUp","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f92e5e26e6e720eda3643248da3c21eb","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":171798330,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"like and commented!!","text":"like and commented!!","html":"like and commented!!"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":171793725,"gmtCreate":1626762065967,"gmtModify":1703764714727,"author":{"id":"3559122008797693","authorId":"3559122008797693","name":"Wee93","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/68f347275fc58792610a1f69df23fb2f","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3559122008797693","authorIdStr":"3559122008797693"},"htmlText":"okay","listText":"okay","text":"okay","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/171793725","repostId":2152669520,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152669520","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626761718,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2152669520?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-20 14:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple delays office return by at least a month as Covid spikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152669520","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"(BLOOMBERG) - Apple is pushing back its return to office deadline by at least a month to October at ","content":"<div>\n<p>(BLOOMBERG) - Apple is pushing back its return to office deadline by at least a month to October at the earliest, responding to a resurgence of Covid variants across many countries, people familiar ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/business/apple-delays-office-return-by-at-least-a-month-as-covid-spikes\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
