I just got an email from my work asking as to go back into the office on the 31st, keep wearing masks when moving around, take two LFT's a week etc.
My place (big firm with over 2000 employees) sent everyone to work from home before the goverment advised it as well. Basically they, like many I exspect see through the 'politics' and are doing their own thing to protect their workforce. This is in every businesses interests as all will struggle if they have large numbers off sick at any one time.
If the goverment stop giving out free tests I think most business will pick up the costs. Its small money compared to the damage a covid outbreak could cause the office/site etc.
The alternative is to say, any form of illnesses stay home, a cold, hay-fever stay away?
Or don't feel 100% do a covid test, if negative and you feel capable of work come in, if not to either stay home! Certainly something I exspect my firm will do... it is after all every firms favourite thing to say "nothing is more important to us than everyone's health and safety" well now / maybe soon they will need to prove it! and come to work even if you might have covid does not!
