The government has released the follow up document to Boris Johnsons’ statement last night. It is intended to clarify details relating to the gradual return to life in a post Covid-19 world. However, there are still many questions unanswered.
There is a small section in Chapter 4 relating to guidance of returning to work which can be summarised as;
– continue to work from home if you can,
– if you can’t, go to work if you are allowed under Covid-19 restrictions and your place of work is open but not via public transport where possible,
– employers should ensure that they are following the “Covid-19 Secure” guidelines (Chapter 3) which are not being released until later this week.
Separate details have been released through the media that non-medical face coverings should be worn on public transport and in enclosed places of work and shops where social distancing may be difficult.
