New measures | What test and trace means for employers

The latest initiative announced by the Government in the fight to quell the coronavirus pandemic was revealed on Wednesday night.

The initiative, coined the ‘track and trace’ system, is already in the process of being rolled out across the nation, and will involve thousands of ‘contact tracers’ tracing down those who have been in contact with diagnosed cases of coronavirus to advise periods of self-isolation in England and Scotland, according to the BBC.
