All staff to wear face marks when returning to work simple as

PointlessBrexit I would have thought it's obvious face masks must be compulsory for everyone who works or travels on any public transport services.

They need to start earning those big bonuses and lead from the front.

Does Boris need to tell them which shoe goes on which foot as well?

I dunno, commen sense would say YES YOU NEED TO SUPPLY MASKS!

If your company is not safe to return to work, then staff shouldn't return. Major companies will have to come up with new safety measures if they want their staff to return to work

Major supermarkets have been open throughout this lockdown, they have managed to put new measures in place to protect staff and customers, other major companies should be able to follow their lead

Get to fuck! Major companies are only interested in profit not people. They want government guidenes so if someone dies they are protected. The £ out ways life.

Did they stop listening and miss the part where he said further details will be issued to companies tomorrow

Dollypuggle Govmt are sane, in their own evil way. They are being consistent with the disproved 'Herd Immunity' stance They ARE competent - they drag their feet just enough that any measures that might work are ineffective They don't want us wearing facemasks as that might save lives.

Frances_Coppola Pretty sure they could make a decision for themselves in line with their company values and corporate social responsibility guidelines. Depends whether they want to become a COVID hotspot or not.

was a bit sketchy alright

a good disposition and a union out of sorts, welcome wednesday ..Awh d'we have their home emails emplyees? employees 'ave 'em

Yes. They should. My work does. People can bring their own, but paper masks are provided.

Can't they think for themselves? Maybe it's they who need to protect their staff!

Follow the science, healthy people don't need them!

Why don't these companies actually make a decision for themselves. If the company has many workers working in an enclosed environment, then wear a mask. Really it isn't that difficult.

maybe Boris has no desire to be re-elected as PM

Well if they properly fitted their masks lower down their faces perhaps they could see what he meant..

They clearly do fuck all that’s why

Coronavirus: First details of govt's revised COVID-19 rules revealed by PM'She says she feels invisible' Evie Toombes underwent surgery in March and was due for a second operation but COVID19 has paused her treatment. Her mother, Caroline tells Sky News how much she's struggling. Latest: Some people are going crazy because the Gov't has not given us a new instruction, like 'stay in bed.' After 7 weeks of lockdown have we all really lost our ability to make 'common sense' rational judgements and decisions? No one is going to start hugging everyone on the streets. Agree. If we see that test, track and trace; and face masks actually work in other countries, why wouldn't we want the same protection in the UK?---getting people to risk their lives (and the lives of their loved ones) before any of this has been properly set up is a big ask.
