Hundreds of Minneapolis city employees will be required to return to the office part-time beginning Jan. 10, even as the city remains under a state of emergency because of the COVID-19 pandemic and the city council plans to meet remotely through at least mid-February.

(5 posts)This article is misleading! Not all Minneapolis city employees will be made to go into the office. There are departments that are not making employees go back to the office and will continue to work remotely. It's a Department by Department/person by person decision.
