JP Morgan Cracks Down On Unvaccinated Staff In Manhattan By Asking Them To Work From Home

The new date is Dec 14, 2021.

According to multiple reports Tuesday, unvaccinated staff in Manhattan are being told to work remotely until alternative solutions are considered, after New York implemented a mask mandate.

According to the report, the bank only allows workers who are vaccine free to enter its headquarters at 383 Madison Ave.

New York has a mask mandate for businesses that don't ask for proof of vaccination and a December 27 deadline for private employers in New York City to have a vaccine requirement.

In a memo sent to staff, first reported by the news agency, JPMorgan encouraged bankers to get Covid vaccines and to get booster shots if eligible, as well as relaxing its mask policy in Manhattan buildings.
The memo said that wearing face coverings indoors would slow down its efforts for a return to normal.

Before the change, unvaccinated bankers in Manhattan were allowed to work in the offices if they underwent Covid testing.

One of the most adamant about its return-to-office plans is that employees should get vaccinations. Business travel for U.S. employees will only be allowed by JP Morgan, according to the report. According to the company memo, clients are increasingly asking for meetings to be restricted to employees who are vaccine free. In May, Jamie Dimon said that remote work doesn't work for people who want to hustle, doesn't work for culture, and doesn't work for idea generation. In its latest memo, the bank said that more than nine in 10 of its employees in Manhattan are vaccine free.

Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman told CNBC that he was wrong to require employees to be back in the office. He thinks we will be in it through most of next year. He went on to say that there is a lot of uncertainty about the Covid variant.

There are nine Manhattan Buildings where vaccines are required by JP Morgan.
