ATLANTA — UPS Inc. is making a bold move as the largest public company in Georgia to withdraw its hybrid work policy.
The shipping giant (NYSE: UPS) will require corporate employees to return to the office five days a week beginning on March 4, according to an internal memo sent on Wednesday and viewed by Atlanta Business Chronicle. The decision will affect thousands of workers based on UPS campuses, including its global headquarters in Sandy Springs.
"By adopting this approach, we recognize the ongoing commitment of our operators and other UPSers who have and continue to work in-person in our facilities five days and sometimes more per week as they deliver on our purpose by providing industry-leading service to our customers," the memo stated.
About a year ago, UPS issued a return-to-office mandate calling for three days in the workplace. The updated policy could aid in promoting in-person connections and aligning the service of operations and non-operations workers, according to the Wednesday memo. A spokesperson confirmed the decision but did not elaborate beyond the memo.
