The Washington Post will bring all its employees back to the office by mid-February and mandate booster shots and weekly testing for every staff member. The Post delivered its latest return-to-office guidance to staff at a town-hall meeting on Wednesday and in an email (titled “Coronavirus Update #44”) on Thursday, which was reviewed by The New York Times. From Feb. 15, all employees based in major office locations will be required to work from the office at least three days a week, the email said. Managers must return to their offices three days a week from Jan. 31. The email said that more than 99 percent of The Post’s work force was already vaccinated, but “out of an abundance of caution, we are taking the additional step of requiring weekly testing for everyone returning to an office location, beginning on Jan. 31, 2022.”
