From 5 January, the UK is in lockdown with all but essential businesses required to close in order to reduce social contact and help control the virus.
People who can work effectively from home should do so. In sectors where homeworking is not possible, businesses must take all reasonable steps to ensure people work safely from a COVID-19 Secure workplace. A key consideration is how to modify your work setting to prevent the spread of the virus.
