U.S. Bancorp had planned to begin bringing employees back to its downtown Minneapolis office after Labor Day, as soon as Sept. 7. Those plans have now changed.
U.S. Bancorp CEO Andrew Cecere, in an email sent to employees Wednesday and provided to Bring Me The News, said a return to the office won't be happening until later in the year, at the earliest.
"After weighing our options, we believe the right course of action is to postpone our broader return to office until sometime in the fourth quarter," Cecere wrote, citing the "increased caseloads" of COVID-19 and the emerging delta variant for the change in plans.
