Governments in Guernsey, Jersey and the UK have released their
plans for a phased release from the lockdown measures taken in
response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Details of the plans are
available on the local government websites and we do not propose to
cover those in detail here.
We will be looking at the specific employment law implications
and some of the issues that employers will want to consider in the
initial stages of exit from lockdown.
Changes to restrictions are likely to be gradual and we are
unlikely to return to 'normal' working practices in the
short-term (if at all). Advice may change rapidly and business will
need to plan ahead and be prepared to change, bearing in mind
government advice, as well as employment legislation and health and
safety issues.
