BUSINESS MAVERICK: ASSESSMENT: Labour minister lays down the ‘direction’ for getting back to work By Ed Stoddard

It is a fraught time to return to work, and employers and employees face a dizzying array of new regulations that have been implemented to contain the spread of Covid-19. Having protective measures in place is clearly essential, and monitoring compliance will be a huge and arduous task. But following the lead of other ministries, the tone of Minister of Employment and Labour Thulas Nxesi’s delivery came across as hectoring.

The Direction’s first commandment to employers is to notify employees about its contents. Much of that content is sensible and is there to protect the workforce and the public. This includes screening, the provision of personal protective equipment by employers at their cost, physical distancing measures at the workplace and that kind of thing. Many employers will have to issue each employee with at least two masks.
