Apple sets April 11 return-to-work deadline

The company has been trying to bring employees back to the office since last June

By May 23, employees will need to be in the office at least three days a week — on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Apple has set an April 11 deadline for its US-based corporate employees to return to in-person work, marking a key test of whether the tech giant can reestablish office life in the Zoom era.

Employees will be required to work from the office at least one day a week by that date, according to a memo sent by chief executive Officer Tim Cook. By three weeks after April 11, employees will be expected in the office twice a week. And on May 23, employees will need to be in the office at least three days a week — on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
