'Work From Home' - Labour Sector Advises

The labour sector met recently to deliberate on matters relating to coronavirus and agreed on ways to enhance issues of personal safety, while addressing certain considerations relevant to the workplace touching on the employer/employee relations.

The tripartite agreed on, amongst others that where possible, employers and employees could draw on a reconfiguration of hours of work such as shift work in order to allow space to be considered together with reduced hours of work.
