The Government published guidance to help ensure workplaces are as safe as possible. This was developed with input from a wide range of businesses, Trade Unions and representative organisations, as well as Public Health England and the Health and Safety Executive, and was led by the Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy.

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy is continuing to work with unions on developing sensible guidance for businesses that gives UK workers the utmost confidence they can now return to work safely. The Government will of course consider any new suggestions carefully.
