The statement said the company believes it is the right time during the COVID-19 pandemic for employees to return to full-time, in-person work.
“While we have some roles that lend themselves to other work models, we believe in-person work benefits our colleagues and our organization by reinforcing our culture and promoting teamwork and professional development,” said HCA. “This approach helps us provide the necessary support for our hospitals and other facilities, which operate 24 hours a day, 365 days per year in pursuit of our mission.”
Another nearby for-profit hospital operator, Franklin, Tenn.-based Community Health Systems, has various work arrangements including fully remote, hybrid and full-time in the office and are based on position and responsibilities, a spokesperson told Becker’s.
