• Live: last minute of the coronavirus
  • Alarm Status: The workers of essential companies must move with a certificate that authorizes it
  • P&R. List of essential service professions

From this Tuesday, only employees of companies declared "essential" by the Government in its decree last Sunday can continue to move to the workplace. To avoid fines for breaking the confinement decreed to fight against the coronavirus , they must have a certificate that expressly authorizes them to move for work reasons. It is a document, a "responsible declaration" , as it appears in the BOE, that the employees must provide to their workers and that may be required by the security forces.

This declaration will certify that the worker is not included in the assumption of the recoverable remuneration permit approved by the Government and "will justify and facilitate his mobility and displacement" to his job, according to the Minister of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda José Luis Ábalos on Monday at a press conference. In the case of self-employed workers, it is sufficient that they justify with a document that they are engaged in any of the activities considered essential.

The new regulation is part of the package of measures with which the Government must specify the decree of March 29 on the granting of recoverable paid permits for employed persons who do not provide essential services, in order to reduce mobility of the population in the context of the fight against Covid-19 . The decree has caused confusion between companies and workers, who ask for formal clarifications to work or suspend their activities with legal certainty.
