Starbucks imposes new office policy requiring corporate employees to work at least three days in office per week from January 2023.

Starbucks is enforcing a new return-to-office policy requiring corporate employees to work in the office at least three days a week, effective January 2023. Non-compliance could lead to termination for approximately 3,500 affected staff. While the policy emphasizes in-office work for collaboration, it excludes vacation, sick leave, and business travel from attendance calculations. This approach aligns with similar policies from other major companies.
