Scotland to relax strict work-from-home guidance from Monday
The Guardian says Scottish office workers will be allowed to return to their desks from Monday 31 January after Nicola Sturgeon lifted strict guidance urging non-essential staff to work from home.
The first minister asked employers, in an update to MSPs at Holyrood, to begin a phased return to work by introducing hybrid working next week after a continuing decline in Omicron variant cases in Scotland.
Sturgeon also announced an easing of face mask rules from Friday, to allow people not wearing face coverings, such as church ministers, to stand 1 metre away from other people rather than 2 metres. Adults will also no longer be required to wear face coverings for parties or indoor events for children under five from Friday.
