Goldman Sachs Group Inc., one of Wall Street’s staunchest advocates of returning employees to offices, will make Covid-19 vaccination booster shots compulsory as the firm stands by its workplace philosophy through surging infection rates in New York.
Anyone entering offices must get a booster by Feb. 1 if they’re eligible for the injections by that date, the investment bank told its U.S. workforce. In the meantime, mandatory testing will double to twice weekly on Jan. 10, the bank said. A company spokeswoman declined to comment on the new measures.
