It’s difficult to know how to manage employees who need to self-isolate or quarantine when rules keep changing. The government’s quarantine list changes regularly. And for anyone already travelling when new locations are announced, it can be more difficult.
9.3 million employees in the UK have been placed on the government’s furlough scheme since March 2020. And rule changes in July allow a phased return to work.

There’s no escaping the coronavirus right now. And for businesses, there’s no denying its impact across all industries.
