COVID GUIDANCE UPDATE 24 03 22

 

Most of the remaining legal requirements in the Coronavirus regulations were removed on Monday, specifically requirements for workplaces to:

collect and share visitor information;

have regard to Scottish Government guidance about minimising risk of exposure to COVID-19 on its premises;

take reasonably practicable measures, as set out in the guidance, to minimise incidence and spread of COVID-19.

Guidance for businesses and workplaces on reducing the risk of COVID-19 and supporting staff and customers has been updated to reflect these changes.
 
A toolkit to assist businesses is available here, a further toolkit for event organisers and businesses who are continuing with the option to check COVID status is available here.

By law, people must continue to wear a face covering in most indoor public spaces, unless exempt from doing so because of specific circumstances. This will be reviewed on 29 March and any changes implemented from 4 April.
