LGBTQ2S+ dating app Grindr ended its remote work policies and forced employees to relocate. Nearly half of its staff left.
In early August, Grindr announced a return-to-office mandate. The policy gave workers two weeks to choose between relocating to their respective team’s newly assigned “hub” city to work in-person twice a week or leave the company with severance, according to the Communications Workers of America .Approximately 80 of Grindr’s 178 workers were forced to leave as of August 31, the CWA said Wednesday.
“Rather than recognize the union, the company issued a new return-to-office policy requiring staff to relocate or quit,” the CWA said in a statement. The union has filed an unfair labour practice charge against Grindr with the National Labor Relations Board.“We are looking forward to returning to the office in a hybrid model in October and further improving productivity and collaboration for our entire team,” the spokesperson said.
According to the Conference Board’s August survey of 185 US HR executives, 73% of organizations reported challenges getting workers to return to the workplace. Some big-name employers have said they will get tough on enforcing their return-to-office mandates after Labor Day.
