Faced with the resurgence of the coronavirus epidemic, the health protocol for companies will be updated and will be published on Friday, the Ministry of Labor announced on Thursday, while Emmanuel Macron is due to meet the social partners during the day.

A videoconference was organized in the morning between Elisabeth Borne, the Minister of Labor, the Secretary of State Laurent Pietraszewski (Occupational Health) and the trade unions and employers.

"This involves monitoring the implementation of the national protocol to ensure the health and safety of company employees during the Covid period and discussing with them on adaptations linked to the announcements of the President of the Republic" , indicates the note.

Two to three days of teleworking

Unions and employers "will have the day to send us their contributions", for posting on Friday.

The current protocol, updated at the end of August, requires workers to wear a mask, including outdoors.

Teleworking is "recommended".

Emmanuel Macron recommended Wednesday evening "two to three days of teleworking per week" in companies where this is possible, to "reduce collective pressure a little".
