We hope you are taking care of your family and yourselves in these unprecedented times. To help navigate some of the employer work issues that have arisen as a result of the COVID-19 lockdown we thought we would provide some information on employment rights and obligations that you may find useful. In this three-part series we follow one fictional character’s situation with each post separately considering three different issues, including: being made to take annual leave by an employer during lockdown;health and safety obligations of an employer for those working in essential services; andobligations of an employer who is receiving a government wage subsidy for an employee.
