Are there jurisdictions that allow this? In my jurisdiction, that would be considered a constructive dismissal and legally treated the same way as a layoff with the same employer obligations.

The Amazon contracts specially say five days a week in office, and always have. Even through the pandemic. The work from home was always a "trust us".

So it's not constructive dismissal because they are just enforcing the already existing contracts.

I just checked mine and I don't see a provision that says I have to be in office 5 days a week anywhere. I've even seen a few folks that even had a contract that specifically said remote pre-pandemic, which the company "converted" to in-office post RTO announcement
