Latest Omicron variant – How mutant strain of covid could END pandemic if global incidences remain mild like South Africa

What laws are in place regarding working at home?

After the summer repeal of the rule, employees are no longer required work from home.

However, some experts have called on the government to implement its Plan B to tackle the spread of Covid-19 – which includes the return of face coverings, working from home and vaccine passports.

From Tuesday, November 30, it is once again compulsory to wear a face mask when visiting some public spaces including shops, hairdressers, nail salons and when using public transport.

Health Secretary Sajid Javid said the country is “nowhere near” reintroducing working from home or social distancing measures to combat coronavirus. However, some companies still allow their employees to work from home while others use a mix WFH/office work.

On Sunday, Mr Javid spoke to Sky’s Trevor Phillips: “We know now those types of measures do carry a very heavy price, both economically, socially, in terms of non-Covid health outcomes such as impact on mental health. So, if one was to make decisions like that they would have to be done very, very carefully and we’re not there yet, we’re nowhere near that.”
