Coronavirus: Your workplace questions

Steve Bridger

At this difficult time, we'd like to offer people managers (and others) who are not CIPD Members an opportunity to ask questions about their specific workplace challenges.

We hope that collectively, the Community will feel able to chip in with guidance and signpost support and resources where these exist.

Thank you.

  • Hi, Can anyone help with this query? We have all staff working from home and have asked people to still take annual leave if it has been booked during this period. We have one member of staff who is 'at risk' and has been advised by GP to self isolate for 12 weeks. He had a 2 week holiday booked abroad which is being moved by the holiday company in any event so understandably he wants to cancel his two weeks holiday. We are trying to be fair to everybody and the business (as fair as you can be during this time) so don't want to make exceptions but my question is, as his GP has said he cannot go out for 12 weeks would this make him an exception and should we allow cancellation of holidays as if it was sick leave, even though he is still well and working? Thanks anyone
