Wall Street begins to drop its mask mandates
management Friday morning stated that masks are now completely voluntary in all U.S. offices for individuals who have been fully vaccinated unless there are more stringent local restrictions in place. Those local restrictions refer to branch offices in areas of the country where mandates remain in effect and where local guidelines will override company policy.
The memo also outlines the company’s definition of "fully vaccinated," which is an employee who has received at least the first two shots and updated their vaccine status in the company’s database. Booster shots are not required for employees at this time. Workers who have not received a vaccine or have not reported their status will still be required to wear a mask in public spaces and participate in twice-weekly mandatory testing, the JPMorgan memo stated. The memo also noted that many employees have now returned to the office with a "large percentage" of its workforceGoldman Sachs is also dropping its mask mandates, making them optional starting Monday, a Goldman spokesperson confirmed to FOX Business.
