Government announce they will no longer ask people to work from home

BOSS welcomes the news that the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has announced today that the government will immediately drop its advice for people to work from home in England. The imposing of working from home orders in December because of the rapid spread of the Omicron variant of coronavirus has negatively impacted businesses in our sector that rely on the occupation of offices.

Thank you to those in our industry who wrote to, called or arranged meetings with their MPs to highlight the negative impact that Plan B, in particular the work from home directive is having on businesses in our sector.
