The general answer is yes, but the real question is why would they?
SAINT LOUIS, Mo. — It can be hard to make ends meet these days with an ever-changing economy. We've been living in a great resignation for two years, though now we're starting to see more layoffs in the finance and tech sectors.
It's still hard for people to make a move back to the office if they have young children who are not quite vaccinated or are taking care of aging parents in the pandemic. After two years of working from home, some people have decided they just don't want to go back to the office.
"By and large, the trend is back to come into the office," said Jay Kanzler, employment law attorney. "Perform your work the way we did it pre-COVID."
That may be the case for employers, but many workers find themselves fighting to stay home.
Jonathan Dalecki works remotely for a shipping company, and he said he would just prefer to stay work-from-home fulltime. His 3-year-old daughter's preschool is five minutes from their house, he saves on commute time and gas money, and he has a lower chance of catching COVID.
His work held a return to the office party, only to regret it a few days later when employees started getting sick.
"There were five positive cases at the office for people who attended the 'Welcome Back Party’" Dalecki said.
Workers don't always get what they want.
Kanzler said most of the time, the law favors employers to allow them to do what works for their business.
