Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, on what date the UKHSA plans to publish public health guidance for employers in respect of the actions that employers may take to reduce the spread of covid-19 and other respiratory infections in the workplace.

The UK Health Security Agency published ‘Reducing the spread of respiratory infections, including COVID-19, in the workplace’ on 1 April 2022. This provides information for employers and workplace managers, replacing guidance on working safely with COVID-19 and is available at the following link:
