How is your job being affected by coronavirus?

As the coronavirus continues to spread, jobs and employment may be affected. It is possible that some workplaces and staff may temporarily be unable to work if they need to self-isolate.

On Wednesday, the government announced that statutory sick pay will begin from the first day of illness, rather than the fourth, in an attempt to minimise the impact coronavirus might have on workers. However, for those on zero-hours or freelance contracts, without sick pay, this might not solve the problem.

We’d like to know how your work is being, or could be, affected by the coronavirus.
