SINGAPORE - When workplace activities gradually resume after the circuit breaker lifts, the Government will need to put in place new guidelines and standards to ensure that they remain safe from potential Covid-19 outbreaks, National Development Minister Lawrence Wong said on Friday .
These guidelines, which will be part of new workplace safety standards, will also be complemented by a testing regimen as well as some form of technology that can ensure better tracking and monitoring should a confirmed case emerge in the workplace. Health Minister Gan Kim Yong added that such standards, which will take a workplace health and safety approach, would have to be differentiated across different sectors depending on the risk assessment of each sector.
Mr Wong added that it is also premature to assume that Singapore will be free from Covid-19 and that normal life can resume by June or July, even if community cases appear to be coming down.
