Goldman Sachs, a staunch advocate of bringing bankers back to Wall Street offices, is sticking to its workplace philosophy, despite rising infection rates in New York, and making booster vaccinations against Covid-19 compulsory.
Everyone entitled to vaccinate must collect a booster vaccination by February 1st in order to be allowed to enter an office.
Other American banks, including Citigroup and Wells Fargo, on the other hand, have eased their return obligations in view of the more contagious Omikron variant.
According to the RKI, a total of 21,080 new cases have been registered in Germany, compared to 13,908 the previous day.
Federal Justice Minister Marco Buschmann (FDP) is open to compulsory vaccination, but sees little opportunity to enforce it with physical force.
Instead, they face fines.
