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.

  • We are a manufacturing company, still fully operational. One of our employees has just received an 'extremely vulnerable' letter from the NHS (dated 3rd April), and has produced a copy for us - all fine, however he has stated that he does not wish to follow the advice to shield and would like to continue to come into work! His role will not allow him to WFH so as a business we would be offering him full pay during his time at home - any thoughts? For his own protection can we insist? He's a great employee, we've made every adjustment we can in all areas of the business to allow social distancing and increased sanitising etc. His motivation seems to be that he thinks he will be incredibly bored at home.
