Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Delivery of Health Services for Patients with Long Covid: Discussion

Ms Sarah O'Connell:

What we are seeing is that is really impacting employers in terms of employees looking for accommodation so they can get back to work. People with long Covid want to be working and leading normal lives. There are many things employers could be doing in terms of making accommodations for reduced days, times for rest and being flexible when it comes to work time. Unfortunately, because of that lack of a statement around that, it is harder for them to look for those accommodations.
