Citigroup Inc. will require all U.S. employees be vaccinated against Covid-19 as a condition of their employment, citing President Joe Biden’s directive to federal contractors.
The Wall Street giant asked staffers to submit proof of vaccination by Dec. 8, and said those who comply will receive $200 as a “thank you,” according to a memo to staff Thursday seen by Bloomberg News. Citigroup set Jan. 14 as the final cut-off for workers to upload vaccine cards, to give unvaccinated staff more time to get shots.
