With the vaccine rollout pushing forward and COVID restrictions being eased all over the country, employers are eager for a return to the office, but many employees still aren’t ready.
Since vaccine distribution began in December, 121 million people in the U.S. have been inoculated, according to NPR’s vaccine tracker. While many people are excited to return to a sense of pre-pandemic normalcy as soon as possible, 27% of employees say they aren’t comfortable returning to their workplace until fall or later, according to a survey by HealthCareInsider.com, an online resource that provides healthcare and insurance information. Seventeen percent of the people surveyed say they’ll never feel comfortable returning to the workplace.
