But over 60 per cent of employers say they d be content with employees resigning rather than returning to office. That is according to a survey of 800 workers and 200 business leaders by OSlash, a productivity software company.

Big-name companies like Apple and Peloton Interactive Inc. are leading the charge after setting Labour Day as their latest deadline for corporate employees to be in office at least three days a week. The push has resulted in a wedge between workers and their bosses, with many rank- and-file employees refusing to give up the flexibility and autonomy they enjoyed during the epidemic. Stories of employee resistance are circulating on social media: One of the most popular posts on the subreddit r antiwork this month described a worker replying to a company-wide message with, simply, no. The New York Times recently offered employees branded lunchboxes to welcome them back to the office. More than 1,200 pledged to work from home to protest the mandated return and pressure the company to negotiate with the union over returning to the building.
