Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Reopening the Economy: Supports for Business
Dr. Orlaigh Quinn:
A lot of the answers are in the Return to Work Safely Protocol, in which the Health and Safety Authority has set out the requirements for the employer and the employee. It asks employers to have regard to people's particular circumstances. I cannot comment on childcare because it is not within my area but obviously I hear the Deputy's concerns and I share them. It is an issue for people. Certainly, health and safety in terms of a return to work have been dealt with in the protocol.
