Employees at Goldman Sachs will imminently “hear from their divisional, business and/or local leadership about what to expect for the months ahead, including team rotations in the office where possible, with the goal of giving everyone who can do so an opportunity to come in to their office.”

That’s according to an email sent to Goldman’s entire workforce — about 39,000 people — sent out on Wednesday by the firm’s top leadership: CEO David Solomon, president John Waldron, and CFO Stephen Scherr.

The return to work has already begun for employees in the Asia Pacific and EMEA regions, they noted. While countries like India have struggled with the coronavirus outbreak, parts of Asia have generally fared better in their handling of the emergent epidemics.

“For each location, as we further open and scale to capacity, we continue to closely manage the number of people in our buildings on any given day, on a cross-divisional basis,” the executives wrote. “And, we continue to strictly adhere to our health and safety protocols and to community guidance as it evolves to sustain a safe working environment.”

While the pandemic was spreading earlier this year, the bank briefly broke workers up into “blue” and “white” teams that alternated between working out of the office for a week and working from home for a week.
