'I’m about to cancel all my Zoom meetings': Companies dangle spa weekends and free meals to lure workers back to the office The migration back to in-person, office-based work won’t happen overnight, and employees might require convincing

Thomas Jepsen, founder of Passion Plans, a company that helps connect home buyers with architects and designers, is among the cohort of employers that are allowing employees to return to the office voluntarily.

But he also knows it’s important to remain flexible with his employees, who are among the more fortunate American workers who were able to work from home during the coronavirus pandemic.

And, the survey suggests, they will need some convincing.

Exhaling after a stressful year and feeling more optimistic about hope of a return to some semblance of normality on the horizon, millions of workers have gotten used to their work/home life balance.

“ There are people who feel comfortable going to concerts and sporting event, yet have no desire to return to their offices. ” Not everyone, however, is being so cautious or offering perks. Jamie Dimon, chairman and Chief Executive Officer of JPMorgan Chase JPM, +0.34% told The Wall Street Journal CEO Council told this week that he hoped to have 50% of U.S.-based employees returning to work in some form by July.“We want people back to work, and my view is that sometime in September/October it will look just like it did before, and everyone is going to be happy with it,” Dimon said.
