BEIS responds to IAAF
In response to IAAF’s call for the critical workers reasonable excuse scheme to include the motor trade, the department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has said that “where employers believe the self-isolation of certain key employees as contacts would result in serious disruption to critical services, they should contact the relevant government department.” This process is only intended to run until 16 August 2021, when fully vaccinated close contacts will be exempt from self-isolation. Further information on critical workers and the guidance for reasonable excuse letters can be found here: http://www.gov.uk/guidance/nhs-test-and-trace-workplace-guidance#critical-services
