Add Comment Question: Hired remotely in 2022 during COVID, continued remote after restrictions lifted. Now, nonprofit employer demands me and two colleagues switch to in-office 5 days/week with 4 weeks’ notice, while most of 600-person company stays hybrid or remote. Answer: Hello, Unless you signed an employment contract allowing your employer to recall you to full-time in-office work, your employer cannot do so without your consent. Requiring you to work from the office may amount to a constructive dismissal, in which case you could treat it as a termination and pursue your severance. Right now, the first decision you must make is are you ready to leave your job over this change and pursue your severance.
