Lyft will let employees work remotely in 2022

Lyft said on Thursday that its employees can work remotely for all of 2022, as a number of major employers delay their return-to-office plans amid a spike in covid 19 cases. The rideshare company previously had plans to summon their employees back by February. With the Omicron variant spreading around the country, companies including Facebook, Ford Motor Co. and Google have all pushed their office return dates. In announcing its plans, Lyft said that the change mostly reflects workers' desire for flexibility rather than virus fears.

A spokesperson for Lyft said in a statement, "We've heard from our team members that they value continued flexibility in determining where they work and would benefit from additional time to plan. We want to give people a choice for all of next year. Offices will fully reopen as planned in February, but working from the office will be completely optional for all of 2022." The spokesperson also said that Lyft will not be fully going remote for the long term, but it will continue to prioritize employees' preferences.
