Bosses, employees ‘must adapt to pandemic workplace’ Article by March 4, 2021 Employers and workers must be willing to adapt to the current work environment if businesses are to remain productive and well-run during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Government’s top labour inspector said Wednesday as Government’s coronavirus messaging shifted to the state of the workplace. Appearing at Wednesday’s live COVID-19 update along with Minister of Labour and Social Relations Colin Jordan, Chief Labour Officer Claudette Hope-Greenidge said the pandemic has caused many businesses to move many of their tasks to being performed from home. She said that although the situation may not be ideal for all, employers and employees need to support each other to make the change work.
