‘Freedom Day’ fast approaching – WFH and masks remain

On Monday the roadmap for easing restrictions at the 80 per cent double dose target was unveiled outlining a clear path way out of lockdowns. The roadmap offered a light at the end of the tunnel with several freedoms announced for fully vaccinated adults (16+) and people with medical exemptions.

Even with the easing of restrictions at 80%, under the public health order all employers, including Transport must continue to allow their people to work from home, if ‘reasonably practicable’. As well, mask wearing will remain mandatory while travelling on public transport. So as we get closer, the message from the Premier is:

• Get vaccinated as soon as you can to protect yourself and to be able to enjoy freedoms soon. Book in for a jab!
• Keep working from home if you can
• Mask wearing remains mandatory
