"Since announcing the policy, Ford has sent some employees emails telling them that they are not badging in enough and warning that they could face termination if they do not improve their attendance, three current and former Ford employees told Business Insider. Two said they had received these emails despite complying with updated office attendance policies and having previous work-from-home arrangements signed off by their managers."
"Ford is the latest company to crack down on working from home - and some employees say they've been told they could be terminated if they don't comply. In June, the Detroit automaker told employees they would be required to come into the office four days a week from September 1. Ford said the move would help boost growth as the company tries to transform itself into an affordable EV powerhouse."
Ford ordered the majority of employees back to the office four days a week beginning September 1 to support growth and its EV transformation. Since the announcement, some employees received emails stating they were not badging in enough and warning they could face termination if attendance did not improve. Two employees said they received these warnings despite complying with updated attendance policies and having prior work-from-home arrangements approved by managers. Many Michigan-based teams had been in office three days weekly since late 2024, while other divisions remained more flexible. Human resources said the emails aimed to instigate a "change of behavior" around remote working and that employees were given time to adjust schedules with managers.
